Field Trip -- Emmett's Orchard

Last week, Makenna's class had a field trip. They go to school about 30 minutes south of us, and the orchard is about 10 minutes north of us. Thinking Isaiah would have a great time, I signed us up to join Makenna's class.

Listening to interesting facts about apples, apple trees and orchards.

Heading into the cooler where they keep their harvested apples and it's a balmy 40 degrees!

Makenna & her classmates stuffed a scarecrow to take back to their class.

Aren't they adorable?

Zaya's not so fond of ducks apparently.

However, he wanted to walk right up to these horses and almost got so close as to pet and feed them. He's usually afraid of big animals. I'm thinking they are usually dark colored horses, so maybe the lighter color made the difference?? He was thrilled to tell Dad when we got home that he gave the horses grass (long weeds) to eat.

Have I mentioned that fall is my favorite time of year? Mostly for the decorations, colors and food. Not a fan of the weather getting cooler only because it means winter is on it's way.

Someone volunteered to take our picture. Sorry I didn't have time to edit it.

Of course, Isaiah found a Ractee! Maybe someday we'll stumble across one for him to play with at home.
