Fall Virgina Apples & Farms

Fall Apples; fresh to eat, apple cider,
apple crisp, applesauce, apple pie , apple juice etc.
Take your pick!
Last weekend we went to Virgina where my Mom grew up and spent some time with her family. On Saturday we spent the morning at their Orchard's and packing shed. It was so interesting to see the operation. Arabella had so many apples I'm surprised she didn't complain about a belly ache. Orrin was napping at Great Auntie's while we explored the farm.

We help sort the apples. I'm not sure if we helped the
production with our many hands or hindered with our lack of experience

We could play in here all day
Would you like a bite?

  1. Just a factual error... or poor sentence structure.

    "Last weekend we went to Virgina where my Mom grew up and spent some time with her family. On Saturday we spent the morning at their Orchard's and packing shed."

    Who is "their" in their Orchard?

    Your sentence makes sense but is is a little unclear. You might consider reworking it a little.
