New Girl on the Block

 We have exciting news!!!
Everyone meet Coco Chanel!!!!
Coco is our brand new Labradoodle sweetheart and future mama for Yesteryear Acres <3
She was GOING to live with us at Camp Always Amelia, but ONE look at her photo and my Grandma said, "NO! That's my dog!!!". 
If you can't tell, we are going on a LONG generational history of humans that LOVE their furry FURever buddies. 
So with a fancy name for a fancy lady and her dog, Miss Coco Chanel is now 'Department Head of all high chair and booster seat cleanings' and...
 "Chief Cuddle Coordinator" at GG's place!
Coco comes from a wonderful friend and trusted breeder and has excellent genetics, lineage, and surpasses all testings! We are so so very in love with Miss Coco and over the moon to have her a part of our Yesteryear Acres Doodles program!
And who wouldn't be with a face like this!?!?
Plus I know someone who gets to snuggle her extra when her human Mama goes on work/travel trips ;) 
SCORE!
Welcome to the Family Coco!!!
Three Cheers for the new girl on the block!
Always,
Amelia

Last Orchard Trip of the Season

Once again, we found ourselves out of apples so it was time to make our final trip to the orchard for the year. All the apples had been picked for the season except for Granny Smith Apples. Being a red apple gal myself I am not the biggest fan of the tart green apples WITH the exception of the last Granny Smiths that cling to the tree and get a nice red blush. *Chef's Kiss* perfection.
With lofty goals of perfect blushing granny smith apples, I enlisted the very best of helpers
Ready for a hard days work at the orchard
Hazel's first apple up for review....
Like this Mama?
Yes! Just like that Hazel!!!
CHOMP
I spy the perfect apple!
And it was just the right height for a family photo and pick!
How we feel about family outings that revolve around food <3 
Our last trip to the orchard was perfect
Right down to the last bite!
Until next year orchard!! 
Thank you for your wonderful tasty treats!
Always,
Amelia
