This past Saturday we made a family trip to Parker's Maple Barn in Mason, NH, followed by apple and pumpkin picking at Washburn's Windy Hill Orchard (which is right down the road form Parker's.)
It was absolutely beautiful! So many of the leaves have already turned, and it was about 70 degrees out. We couldn't have asked for better weather. The kids loved going on the hayride to the orchard, where we picked Courtland and Macintosh apples. We stopped to look at the goats and the sheep. Brody made friends with one of the goats. Then we were on a search for the perfect pumpkin. In years past, we have gotten a pumpkin for each child, but we decided on doing one big, family pumpkin this year. We are carving it tonight, and I promise to take pictures when we are done.
On another note, Ty made an awesome catch today, when he was on the receiving team in football. He caught the ball and ran like his life depended on it!!! It was so exciting!
And have I mentioned that Brody is walking all over the place? He has mastered walking, and is doing it much more than crawling now.
Nate is good too... I thought I should add that in;)
I hope everyone else is enjoying the autumn weather and beautiful scenery.
