Apple Pickin' Part 2

Here is the finale of the Apple Pickin' adventure Leilani and I had this past Sunday! 

After the first orchard we came upon much more that this place has to offer. A field of sunflowers, a corn field maze and a much bigger orchard. What a day!

 

Leilani's amazing fall acorn bracelet, I am obsessed with it:) 

The larger orchard was definitely my favorite. It was so full and lush! Very serene.

 

 

And then just when you think it's over, a pumpkin patch! I mean this place had everything!! 

 I love how happy the jack-o-lantern looks!

I am happy to report that the apples and the varieties of apple butter, pumpkin butter and sweet potato pecan butter have all been amazing. So amazing in fact, I can not pick a favorite! The apples picked right off the tree are the best tasting apples I have ever had. Jubilee Fugi is where it is at!!

Sunday Apple Pickin' Part 1

Yesterday was one of those perfect Sundays.  Here in Chicago were are having quite the Indian Summer, 80 degrees and higher in October! That is truly unheard of here!! So when my fellow blogger friend Leilani from The Thriftaholic asked me to join her for some Sunday adventures I jumped at the chance. She suggested we travel over to Indiana for some end of season apple picking at County Line Orchard. I was so excited no only for spending this beautiful day outside but going to a huge apple orchard/pumpkin patch, not to mention getting to know Leilani better! I grew up in a town with a apple orchard and in middle school we used to go every September to learn how to make cider and butter. As soon as we pulled up I could smell the nostalgia.

We had such a fun day eating apple & pumpkin donuts, drinking fresh apple cider and exploring all the orchard had to offer! I took advantage of the market and got jars of apple butter, pumpkin butter, sweet potato pecan butter (so far my fav), and numerous freshly picked Jubilee Fuji apples! I can't wait to go back! 

We took so many pictures that this will most likely be a 3 parter:)

 

 The weather was so beautiful and the colors were so vibrant, I didn't even have to adjust the colors of these photos!

 Leilani wore the cutest dress perfectly coordinating with the apple trees:)

 

Of course we had to twirl! Leilani was totally a twirling pro.

 I wish I would of worn a fuller skirt to hold more apples:)

 I love Leilani's mix of accessories! The acorn bracelet is to die for.

The donuts and cider were probably my favorite part of the orchard, that is until I got home and tasted the sweet potato pecan butter.

 Apple Cinnamon & Pumpkin, yummers!!

 mmmm.....

How did you all spend your Sunday??
