Apple Pickin' and Bean Snappin'

We made lots of applesauce today.
One of our cutest retired neighbors put a sign in their yard advertising FREE golden delicious apples if people would just come pick them. He said his wife is sick to death of canning and they still have apples sauce from two years ago. Luckily Bub and I were walking by just as the sign went up so loaded our stroller full of apples from the low branches, pet their bunny, watched the chickens peck around, and had a wonderful conversation with the cute retired neighbor.

I want to be so generous, kind, and full of wisdom someday.

Miriam performed her role of a bean snapper in the play "Stone Soup: a Dance Tale" this afternoon. She loved it, and is so excited she still has two more performance.


She is such a pretty, enthusiastic girl.

and here is another pretty girl.

Thanks for coming Alicia, it made Miriam feel so special.
