Apples and Pumpkins and a Birthday Girl

taking a moment to find joy in the little things

{pretty}

Over the weekend we headed to one of our favorite towns (Hood River) and did our annual apple and pumpkin picking. There are several fun farms to visit in Hood River and it's so picturesque. It was cloudy, but we were treated to beautiful views of Mt. Hood to the south and Mt. Adams (in Washington) to the north. It was cool to stand in the pumpkin field and look at one mountain, then turn around and look at the other. Beautiful setting...

this girl...my youngest

She turned 8 on Sunday and we had a great day celebrating her. 

Her name...Kayleigh...means celebration

At the back of the apple orchard we saw a pasture with sheep and an alpaca.

For some reason my oldest was stomping on fallen apples

And this was a birthday "hug" (attack) that I caught on camera

We were curious if the sheep would like apples, so we gave them one we found on the ground.

They actually fought over them and would push each other out of the way.

See that dot in the middle of the photo? I've got a dirty lens and I can't seem to get rid of it. Yesterday I had to take my camera in to be cleaned and it can take up to a week. So I'm camera-less...sad and a little expensive. But I want to get it cleaned before our upcoming trip to San Francisco.
