Apple Day's Festival

We LOVE Apple Days in Julian!  It's a festival outside of the town at a winery where lots of craft booths are set up, wine and beer tasting, food trucks, kids activities and best of all, apple picking.  We've been the last few years and it never disappoints.  We got there pretty early so we could beat the crowd and we definitely did because it looked like the place was barely open.  Apparently, it had been open the day before and over night a huge wind storm hit and blew over a lot of the craft booth canopies.  Most of them had picked up and left, understandably.  But the kids got right to the fun stuff!

Which always includes the bounce house...

and a pony ride!  Grandma was nice enough to buy a ride for each of them and they couldn't wait!

Then we went over to enjoy some panning for gold.  Tatum really loved this and Daddy help her three times!

Ty was more interested in the corn box. :)

A jewel!  Tatum found a few items and for $1, she got a little glass container to safely keep all her treasures.

Ty finally came around when he saw the jewels.  Who doesn't love treasure!

And after some wine tasting, we were off to do some apple picking.  These apples are always so small, sweet and delicious.  And Ty LOVES finding all the sweet ones and taking bites along the way.  He's our fruit guy.

Another good one!

We bought one big bag and it didn't take long to fill it up. I didn't get a picture of Grandma in action but she helped fill the bag as well.  Lots of fun for everyone.

Silly family!
