This last week I had my first opportunities. I went to Enrichment night last Tuesday, and then on Wednesday I decided to attend playgroup. I was a little nervous showing up with my 6 week old to the apple orchard, and yet I am glad I did. It was a lot of fun, I met some more people, and I am starting to slowly feel like I am getting acclimated to the ward and area here.
The Orchard had tons of different activities to do, including picking your own apples, hayrides, pumpkins, and the "famous apple cider donuts". However, the best part about it in my mind was the spectacular view. It was simply breathtaking. The orchard is on the top of a mountain, and you can see both sides for miles scenes that look like they are straight out of the movies. I loved it so much I took Chip back on Saturday to check it out!!!
It just happened to be the Apple Festival on Saturday when we went back -- so it was PACKED!!!
The view from one side of the mountain - simply breathtaking!
Our little family enjoying the incredible weather!
For the festival they had this band formed by old men -- they were hilarious, singing old school songs; however, they really were good and it was fun to listen to (behind them are the grape vineyards)
This was set up for the kids to take pictures in -- so naturally we had to take a picture of little Cash in it --- he LOVED it
The view from the other side of the mountain - with Chip and Cash enjoying the view!
Just enjoying being out with our little one (I loved watching Chip interact with Cash)

I want to go to a apple orchard! I love getting out in a new place and experiencing the beauty. I feel I took advantage of the beautiful mountains in Utah and I miss them, but I Love the Green blankets of trees here and the sunsets are incredible here!
