Down on the Farm 2008

How Tall this Fall? Friday we headed to StoneyRidge for our family's Annual Harvest Festival ~ only this year we went with Collin's whole class! We had a fantastic time! This is by far my favorite annual family day of every year ~ it's full of adventure, it's outdoors, it has yummy (and healthy!) eats, and it inspires the biggest smiles and greatest mischief!
The Blossom preschool kids (+Owen) and their teachers: Miss Emily, Miss Amanda, and Miss Shawna:
My CowKids:Exploring the Farm is always an adventure! This year we gathered pumpkins, ran the aisles of apples, eating at least two apples each (four if you're a "chomper" like Collin and I are - thanks for the new nickname, Collin!), learned about the bees brought in to pollinate the pumpkin flowers and increase the crop, fed the goats and birds, and enjoyed a picnic lunch!
This is Collin and his "girlfriend" Emma S. - notice that even at age four, mom and dad are holding their other hands! J/K! (sort of)
Owen and the Donkey shared a special bond!
Collin pulled the cord and sent food up in a tin can to the goats waiting patiently at the top of the post!

Balancing Acts:The apples in the orchard - hand-picked out of the trees - are the best:
Owen gets himself into the cutest poses! Believe it or not, not one of these is staged:
