Apple Peelin' & Apple Pies!

Sherry's been peeling her apples the past week, mom & dad peeled 12 (8-cup) bags last week from my three little trees, so I thought I better get involved and help a little too! Sherry manned one peeler, and...
Dad manned the other.
Dad cooked us a wonderful chicken & baked potato dinner! Here he is putting a few apples in a caserole for baked apple dessert! It's been years since I've had baked apples, and mmm were they good!
Mom was kitchen supervisor! We peeled 12 more bags, and made 8 apple pies for the freezer. We're getting ready for the holidays! Pumpkin pies are always made the night before Thanksgiving.
Sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and a few slabs of butter.
I had the important job of "Butter Cutter!"
No one seals and decorates the top crust like Mom! Can't wait for the holidays! ("Sherry, do you want to start walking tomorrow?")
