Apple Picking With Grandpa

Yesterday, Donovan and his grandpa went apple picking.
They found a big bucket and Donovan helped Grandpa carry it to the neighbor's house.
Grandpa's neighbor has four apple trees that he allowed Donovan and Grandpa to pick from.
Grandpa held Donovan up high to help him reach the apples on the branches.

Then Donovan handed the apples to Mommy so she could put them in the bucket.

Donovan learned how to pick the apples without breaking the branches. He lifted and twisted the apple gently so the stem gave way.

He even found a few apples already on the ground.

When the bucket was full, it was very heavy.

So Donovan helped Grandpa carry it back to his house again.

When they got there, Grandpa said, they could have some apple pie he had made from last time he picked apples.

Donovan likes apple pie!
