So the weekend of country fun continued yesterday at the Apple Country Orchards. http://www.applecountryorchards.com/ . It was really pretty and super down to earth and country. This place made the corn maize look like New York City! It was just outside Lubbock in a little town called Idalou and we walked in and found a tiny little restraunt and bakery. There were kids outside decorating pumpkins and hayrides going in and out of the orchards. The food was really good and they had the worlds BEST apple turnovers! It was just fields and fields of apples, and it was so pretty to get to walk through and see!
This weekend has been so fun and refreshing and I am so glad my mom made the trip to come see me. We have been watching lotsof "girly" movies and eating lots of food! She is actually in the kitchen right now cooking lots of food for me and Lance to freeze and eat for the next couple of weeks. SO NICE! I also have to announce that I made a wreath & it actually came out cute!! For anyone who knows me they know that arts and crafts are NOT my forte! But I think this project was actually a success....with the help of my mom of course giving me some tips! Ellen, my mother-in-law gave me a wreath that was really cute & it just had a ribbon on it. So we decided to spruce it up & it turned out SO cute! We definitely have the most festive door at our apt. complex!
Ok that's all for now. I am going to have to face reality for a couple of hours today and work on some homework!
One of the pretty apple trees....this one has lost a lot of apples already.
