Default apple blossoms in October

I have two apple trees which were planted in my yard, one in front
other in back, by a friend. They usually bloom about the same time in
early spring, but in the two springs they have lived here, each has
had only a few blossoms. Now it is October and they are coming out
all over the place.

One is a, I think, Pink Lady and the other is a crabby. Freezes are
rare here around south Houston. Assuming they manage to pollenize (?)
each other, what might my chances be of seeing a few apples this
winter?
