This weekend we went to visit Nana and Granddude in Charlottesville. Part of the reason for our visit was my longing for fall activities like apple picking and pumpkin picking. Charlottesville did not disappoint! We ended up going to Chiles Peach Orchard in Crozet because they were having a fall festival with lots of activities for the kids. Annabelle sorely needed a good nap, so we left her with Daddy at home, and Nana, Granddude, and I took Sophie to the orchard.

First up was face painting! |
|
Next was donut decorating with very watery icing and sprinkles! |
|
Sophie was very serious about pumpkin painting. |
|
At last, the pumpkin patch! |
|
Sophie picks out her favorite. |

So happy together.
By the time we were finished with all that, we decided there was not time for picking apples! We'll have to do that another time. Any disappointment we might have felt, though, was cured by the purchase of plenty of cider and apple cider donuts. I could eat those all day! We can now add a trip to the pumpkin patch to our list of things we longed for in Korea and have now indulged in back in the U.S.
