First Field Trip of the Year

Hiding & Seeking

How messy can we get???



Today Ethan had his first field trip for the year. We went to a local apple orchard for the morning. It was cold and a bit breezy, but we bundled everyone up and had a great time. We first went on a hayride out to the orchard. The tractor stopped and we got to pick some apples. Then we saw the pumpkin patch and bee farm. When the ride was over we were able to watch how apple cider is made. Then we had fresh doughnuts (they were still warm...oh so yummy!) and apple cider. On the way out we found the straw pile and Ethan & Mia had a ball playing in it. They would bury themselves and play hide and seek in it. We came home covered in straw but had a great time!

That looks like a lot of fun. But cold...brrrr! Looks like they should be making snow angels in that hay!

Mmmmmm....cinnamon donuts. :)

Looks like you guys had a wonderful time. Fall is my favorite season and going to the orchard is one of my favorite activities of fall. :)
