One thing Garrick & I can't get enough of this time of year is this sweet little place called Apple Hill. It's up in Placerville; about half way from Sacramento to Lake Tahoe. We go up there several times during this time of year - We go up there to cut down our Christmas tree, admire the mountain beauty & sample all the apple fixings (Apple Donuts, Carmel Apples, Apple Pie, Apple juice, Apple Beer, Apple Wine, Etc.). We absolutely LOVE it!

I have been dying to take my parents & Annie up there to see the beauty & festivity of this time of year, unfortunately Garrick couldn't come with us (he was prepping for his big football game).

Aubree had a great time; chasing the dogs, riding a pony & just being out in the fresh air (she's an outdoorsy kind of girl!).
