As tradition goes, we spent another beautiful Autumn day at the Apple Festival at Graves Mountain Lodge. While some may go for the apples, yummy treats, bluegrass, hayrides, crafts and such, we go for some other reasons...

After-all, every family day is a photo shoot- just ask my kids! ;)

The weather was grand!
The sun was shining, the leaves gave up their gorgeous colors for all to marvel and...thanks to memaw,
we came stocked with overflowing picnic baskets.

We found a beautiful spot by the lake for our picnic and enjoyed the bounty.
Once lunch was over, we went out to explore...
Papa took the boys out walking around the lake and all of us girls explored the old houses and canning sheds.

Once we had taken all the pictures that could be endured, we set out for the festival grounds.
 |
There was bluegrass in the background, the smell of woodsmoke cooking up fresh apples, turning them into dark, rich apple butter and children running from hay bale mazes and pony rides.

Overall, we had a wonderful day and enjoyed enough memories to last for years to come.
