Grandparents day with the Brinkleys

Day two of the grandparents' visit turned out also to be Grandparents Day. We celebrated by going to the Iowa River Power Restaurant for brunch followed by a walk along the bridge over the Iowa River. It was another beautiful day to enjoy.



Elaine still has a fear walking over bridges, especially when she can see between the planks. Thankfully, Grandma was there to hold her hand.



Next we headed out to Wilson's Orchard to pick apples and grab some apple turnovers. Most of the honeycrisp apples had been picked, but Peter was happy that his "favorite" apple was ripe to eat: the Senshu apple. He tried one and gave it a thumbs up!
He really enjoyed that apple!

Natalie got up close and personal in picking the perfect gala apple.

Of course, Elaine wanted to do the same!

Nothing is better than apples freshly picked from the trees.
