Dixon Apples & Homemade Pizza


This morning after we dropped the boys off at school, we headed to the Dixon Apple Ranch. It was opening day. The champagne apples they sell are extremely popular and sell out often the very first weekend they open, so we wanted to make sure we got some. We were joined by my friend Tracye & her daughter Julia. After driving almost all the way there we hit stopped traffic about 3 miles from the place. It took over an hour to get 3 miles. Tracye decided to get out about a mile into the wait and walk, so she could stand in line for apples. That worked out pretty good. As I walked up with the girls she was ready with a wagon heading into the barn area to get our apples. We bought lots of apples in hopes of some yummy apple sauce, pies and such. While we were there we enjoyed some yummy apple fritters. Because Savannah missed school to come on this adventure, she also missed a pizza baking project. I decided to let the kids make homemade pizza's for dinner which they all enjoyed.
