Upstate NY

Absolutely breath taking................
Last week we took the girls with my parents to visit my Uncle Derrick (Dad's brother)and his family. We had an amazing time. it was very cold and it even snowed on Friday morning. It was just beautiful. I can't even describe it with words. God's creation is just beyond my thinking.
We went to the Apple Festival. Yummy, yummy. They had homemade apple fritters there. OMG! My aunt waited in line for about 30 minutes just to get the tickets to stand in another line for the fritters. Well worth it! They actually slice the apples and then fry them, kind of like a funnel cake with the powdered sugar effect. So GOOD! Micah was able to go to Cooperstown which is where the baseball Hall of Fame is. Payton tagged along with him while I stayed at home with Presley...let's just say he would like to go back without a distraction. :) We also went to this small town, Skaneyatlas (SP?) it had the neatest shops. I had fun, fun shopping here. Oh, an to add Payton broke the door knob off at one of the stores....What do you do? My uncle is truly a great tour guide.....he took us to a great furniture store called Johnny Appleseed. What a neat store! Payton and I got to pick apples here as well. We also road a big baot arounf 1000 Islands. We saw absolutley amazing homes and an unbelievable castle called Boldt(SP?)Castle. Unfortunately we could not go in it. It had already closed for the season. We had dinner with my cousins and their kids. It was so nice to meet and see family. The kids just played great together and enjoyed every moment of it. All I can say is that we had a GREAT family vacation!
