Picking Apples

Apples yes, but we also saw a ton of pumpkins, apple doughnuts (soooo good), cider, some Grade A people watching and more. The owners of Sky Top Orchard are geneus. They charge me and hundreds of other families to pick their apples for them, and then charge us more than what they can sell the apples to the grocery for. But, I'm ok with that. The time walking with the family, playing on the free playgrounds, eating a few apples as we stroll, and did I mention the fresh apple donuts? It was well worth the $8. So if you haven't experienced Apple Picking with your friends or family, then this is the time of year....

The New Job

Well, I've officially started the new job. In short, I like it. I've only had a few days of training so far, and there is so much to learn, but i'm excited about it already. I've taken Boone (our dog) with me to NC and she loves camp. She runs around the property all day swimming, running throught the woods, and making friends with the local dogs. They are teaching her the ropes. I guess that's all the news for now. Please continue to pray for our house to sell here in Gwinnett and for our search for a new home in Black Mountain. Also please pray for Amy as she takes care of Piper and continues to work for YL in Gwinnett...not an easy task to do alone. OK, more news coming soon....thanks for your prayers.

New Hampshire


So we took a week to go visit Piper's Great Grandfather. Wow, New Hampshire is beautiful! It rained every day, but it was also beautiful every day. Piper made friends with the birds that frequented the feeders, and the chipmunks that Grandpaw feeds every day. I think that I'm going to have to start feeding the wildlife in Black Mountian....Piper might make us! We had a great time with family while we were there. It's always so good to be together!
