It's FALL! :)

We made it out to visit Shaw Farm a couple of weeks ago (I'm a little behind!). We met up with my sister, her family and our friends Courtney and Brandon with their daughter Addy. It was a little chilly in the morning but warmed up pretty quickly through the afternoon.

My favorite things to do at these pumpkin farms is taking pictures and hayrides!! Noah was pretty much glued to Addy and Brie hung out with her cousins (best friends) Makayla and Avery. I got some really cute pics of all them together and it was overall just a perfect start of Fall! Brie was absolutely fascinated with the baby chickens. They had all sorts of farm animals for the kids so see. Their was a horse, donkey, hens, and goats! Poor Noah just wanted to ride a tractor! haha....I guess he remembered last year when they had a big one and let the kids just sit on it. Since starting up this blog thing it will be neat to see how much the kids grow from year to year. :)

After letting the kids run around and play and taking tons of pictures, we went for our hayride!! This year I thought it would be neat to ride the horse hayride instead of the tractor, which we do every year. I didn't get a picutre of all of us on there but it was so nice. We even had the whole hayride just to us! It is smaller than the tractor one so it doesn't hold as many people. It was much slower but the kids loved it and even got to see the horses poop!! HA!

After the hayride we went over to let the kids pick out some small pumpkins and get their faces painted. We tried to get their faces painted when we first got there but (cough, cough Lindsay) we were too early and they weren't open yet. hahah...Noah likes to just paint his hand because "he likes to see it!" Brie got a pretty sparkly spider and he got a pumpkin like Addy. Makayla got the coolest, at least I think, it was a graveyard!! Avery got a bat which was pretty cute too! :) When we got home we got the pumpkins out and the kids started painting! Daddy painted Bailey's for her ;)
