Orchard, Temple, & Friends

Field Trip to Burgess Orchard in Alpine today.  We took neighbor Lily along.  She is a great pal for Truman.  Tru, Lily, and Eliza enjoyed a slice of free peach, a baby gala to enjoy, and the best apple cider sample from Big Red Barn. Liza ate through most of her apple. She was overjoyed! We’re sad to see peach season end, but we also enjoy apple season! Apples with caramel… apple crisp… apple dumplings… yum!This lady is so darling. Her name is Vanay (as in the feminine form of Van). Her dad, Van Burgess, ran the farm. She was telling me about what a great athlete he was and played basketball at BYU. She is a delight. She used to teach kindergarten so she showed us the star inside the apple. She let the kids see how the apples were shined by bouncing along a soft roller. She gave Tru the hugest apple pick from the day… honey crisp!
On our drive home, we went the back way by the temple. “Bemple” Liza shouted from the back seat. The kids love to see the temple!
