Last year we had a lot of fun at Minnetonka Orchards, so it seems this is becoming an annual tradition along with the state fair. Peak color today, so I enjoyed myself thoroughly!
Click to enlarge and zoom in on Noah - he's turning into quite the ham!
The boys enjoyed climbing and rolling in the large mountain of hay.
Simply cannot get enough of John Deere tractors! My boys will be customers for life!
There was a very cool wooden train for the kids to climb around in and on. Noah is slowly starting to catch on to the whole "pose" idea for a picture. I say slowly because usually he either won't even look at you, or will just stare blankly. He only today started copying big brother and saying "cheese" whenever mommy had the camera out.
Mom suggested (much to dad's chagrin) that they boys bury dad in the hay. I think Rob was picking hay out of his shirt the rest of the day! (hee-hee)
Even though they have a rather large sandbox at home, this proved to be one of their favorite activities of the day!We also went on a hay ride, enjoyed some yummy apple donuts, and played hide and seek in the corn maze. It was a very fun day! Noah wore himself out and was asleep within five minutes after heading home. Even Ethan took a short nap in the car.
After all this beautiful weather, would you believe they are predicting snow flurries by Wednesday? That's Minnesota for you. 9 out of the 11 years we've lived here we've had our first snowfall before Halloween. Guess this year's unseasonable warm streak will not stop the trend. Batton down the hatches....winter's comin'!
