Cider Pressing Party

What does Washington do best? .......APPLES!
Here they are being cleaned.

The Cider Press

Apples...

Apples...

And more apples.....Yummy!

Waiting for the Cider pressing to get started!

Ate a few of these...Guilty!

So the press chews up the apples to make them look like this.

Then you turn the top like Brad is doing here and it.....

Presses the fresh Apple Juice out here! DELICIOUS!

Cortlynn shoving her face with marshmallows! Atta girl!

Brad taking his turn by the hot fire roasting our dogs for lunch.

The children were in heaven with the puddle. Jonathan is working getting through an ear infection so he didn't splash in this. Sorry bud.

We loved how Jonathan just sat down at the table. So trusting of others. He just assumes everyone wants to play with him. His cousin Finn is to the right of him and the other two kids are cousins on the Opdahl side.

Thank you to Jordan and Jill Opdahl for having us down to Olympia for such a fun day of cider pressing and catching up! Loved every part of it! Side Note: There fourth child Daphne was born the same day as David. Both our boys have been born on the same day as one of there cousins!
