Annual Fly Creek Cider Mill Trip





Since I was teeny myself , my family has made an annual trip to Fly Creek Cider Mill and then to Cooperstown to feed the ducks on the lake , and then off to Brooks BBQ in oneonta. Sunday was a perfect day for starting the new tradition in Fiona's life.
So grandma & grandpa d and aunt Sara joined John , Fiona & I for her first official fall trip to the cider mill and foliage watching. The day couldn't have had nicer weather if we asked , and moods were good. She had a fantastic time, John & I took turns with the baby bjorn, and she was able to see all the sights and felt free and happy. I am still in amazement that I actually have my own child that I can make new traditions with or choose to continue with the old. And I have to remember that soon I will have to leave out cookies and milk for Santa.

oh god, I can taste the cider now! I wish I could have gone with you on your annual trip. great pictures of little Fiona, and good ol' upstate in the autumn. The one of you and Fiona is gorgeous! It's funny, her eyes are JUST LIKE YOURS, but with blue instead of your green. Is it JUST the picture or are they really like that?

I love those wooden cutouts! It's so weird seeing her face in there & not yours & Sara's & John's...life is fleeting.
