Well, this year's trip wasn't as successful as last time, due to the dramatic, tear-filled tirades by my daughter. I think she was a bit under the weather, so she was having no part in the apple picking fun. Jayce was tired of walking through the rows of inedible vegetables (besides a couple of squash, we were unsuccessful in scoring great finds). Anyway, since my children are more independent now, they don't "go with the flow" as easily. They're opinionated little people who express their disapproval. By the end of our adventure, they were more than ready to leave. Fortunately, the company of Kellie, Tricia, and Leslie kept me sane. Despite my grumpy kids, they still wore smiles on their faces. Thanks, girls!
Thanks, Tricia, for this great pic of Jayce. He was quite pleased with his apples and loved eating them the following week.
And, Kellie, thanks for the pictures of Alyssa. They provided the perfect description of our day. If Alyssa wasn't listless in the stroller (see above), she was crying (see below).
You know, I try to make an effort to do fun things with the kids, but sometimes it's a bust. However, all I can do is keep trying and maybe someday they'll appreciate my efforts. Or maybe not. And that's okay. :)

Your playgroup adventures never cease to amaze me! Congrats on a whole year, Lisa! Now you can print out your blog! (www.blurb.com ) It will be fabulous!
Ummm, that wasn't the best trip for me either! I don't know I think we were all so sick of being hot, but now we are enjoying below 80 degree weather while it lasts.
It's all about making memories...right? It make be feel better that I'm not the only one that happens to!
You are a great mom for just trying! Casen is lucky if we make it to the grocery store let alone somewhere fun and exciting. I am not a fan of being outside so those kind of adventures are not the best! Happy 1 year blogging anniversary!
Love the last paragraph...it is as if you read my mind...every day!
