Spring - We celebrate Sylvia's

65th birthday with Boston-area grandchildren; Mikey and Anna Van der Linden in back, Katie, Sylvia Rose, and Dominic Lanni in front.

 

  We also had an exciting visit to Washington DC with our NC grandchildren.  Then back to the orchard to start a new harvest year.

 

 

 

 

Summer - Our NC grandchildren are all swimmers - Andrew, Dorrie, Henry, and Margaret Hankins.  They joined their cousins for an August reunion at the orchard.  Apples and kids both growing!

 

 

 

 

 

Fall - Our 4th harvest and a happy one in spite of 12 inches of rain in October!  We love seeing all the families return.  Our families help out with sales and cider making.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Winter - Christmas came early, with the arrival of Lisa and Jan's miracle babies on December 5, 2005.  Elsa Mary and Sarah Rose Van der Linden are beautiful and healthy.- combined weight over 15 #!  We will be spending time there to help out and enjoy these darlings.
