Apples & Pumpkins!

This week I had the enjoyment of visiting the grandkids! Daddy was gone overseas on business and I went to keep momma company and help with the two little ones.
 
We visited the local pumpkin patch! 
So many pumpkins, and nice ones too...how can you pick a favorite?
 
Orange pumpkins and orange tractors...
just the kind Beckham's great grandpa farmed with! 
 
 
After the pumpkin patch, we headed to the apple orchard.  The apple trees were loaded with apples, a bumper harvest for the growers for sure.  There are all sorts of fun things to do for the kids at the Cambridge Orchard...
 
 
The barn with the corn was a hit with Beckham...running on the bales of hay that surround the corn and then catching some "air time", jumping into the cold-on-the-toes corn.  We of course couldn't leave without visiting the goats that reside at the orchard.
 

After playing, we visited the apple store, bought some honey-crisp apples (mmm), and of course no one can leave there without buying freshly made apple/cinnamon cake donuts...a treat for the ride home.
Avry had her first taste of  "orchard donuts"...
she approved.
 
 
Enjoy the rest of your weekend,
Brenda
