Apples, Anniversary, Beatles, Balloons,

 I took Savannah and Levi to the Jupiter Balloon Festival at Conner Prairie. It was at 7:30am and the weather prevented the balloons from going up, but we got to see them all on the ground and talk to the pilots.

We went for our annual apple picking at Stuckey Farms. This year, we had to pay admission which included flower picking and the fall festival amenities. We were practically the only ones there and had lots of fun!

A couple heard us trying to pick honeycrisp apples and told us they think the honeycrisp trees are planted in hidden locations. They lead us to a honeycrisp tree pretty far down.

Jonas said, "I'll hold onto these for when I propose"

We also picked mums at Spencer Farms

Chris and I celebrated our 17th wedding anniversary at an overnight in Cincinatti for Riverfest

We got free tickets to Symphony of the Prairie to see a Beatles tribute band
