Picking Apples...

We picked the apples in our backyard. They are of the "I have no clue" variety, it a pleasant sour green color - care for some?! I don't know what to do with them, but it was something fun to do with the kids. Picked apples..
...and found a lady bug...
...and chased the lady bug....
...and interrogated the lady bug...

and talked about the ladybug.

What was that nursery rhyme:

Ladybug, Ladybug

Fly away home

Your house is on fire

and your children all gone

all except 1 and that's Ann

for She crept under the frying pan.


If you have heard this nursery rhyme and have any idea what it could possible be about, please share it. It has always been a puzzle to me.

Wow, those apples look great!! You should pick up the October edition of Woman's Day Magazine. They have a ton of yummy apple recipes. There is an apple raspberry crisp recipe I am dying to try. Cute pics!
