Pumpkins and Apples

Yesterday was Turtle's class field trip to the pumpkin/apple farm. Frog and I went and, since he actually had a day off, J did, too.

We had a lot of fun. The kids got to see how the apples are washed and sorted in the warehouse, then they got to go out in the orchard to pick their own apples. They got apple bread and apple juice for a snack. Then they got to go pick their pumpkins. This part was kind of cheesy...the pumpkins were just all laying on the ground (not on the vine...they were just dumped there) and they got to choose one to take home. The kids liked it and I guess that is all that matters, right?


They had an awesome hay pyramid that the kids could climb on. Frog loved it...

All the other pictures show the boys' faces too clearly, so you will have to be content with this pretty picture I took of old farm equipment...

Afterwards, they ate lunch and got to play in the field. Then it started raining, so we packed up to leave. It was a good time for everyone!
