Time for Turkey and Apple Cider!

For months (yes months) the boys have been talking about how they're going to make apple cider with PopPop on Thanksgiving. Getting them to wait the required timeframe until Thanksgiving when they can do this has been entertaining. Well, the day finally arrived! And it was cold. Really cold. This year, however, we caved to the elements and set-up the cider press in the garage alongside two space heaters. It was amazing. So much so, that Bobby exclaimed days ahead of time when he heard the plans, "why did it take decades for us to do this?!"


Maddy's ready to help!
 

And she's adorable!

No turkey day is complete without a tractor ride!

They're beginning to fade...sort of.
