Yesterday I got to chaperon Jonah on his first field trip. We went to the orchard. It was so much fun. I am so thankful that the Lord allowed me to be able to go with him. We got to the orchard around 9:45 am. We first went to the play area and the children got to play around. Next we had free time and we played games and went to see the llamas. After that we went and w
alked through the maze. That was lots of fun. I had a map and we still got lost in it, but the kids had a blast trying to find their way out. After we got everyone back together we went and ate lunch. When we got done with lunch we went and did the pumpkin walk. They had different stages of how pumpkins grow, and talked to the kids about it. They passed out pumpkin seeds to all the kids for them to try them. Some of the kids liked them others were spitting them back out. Next we got to go and do the hay ride. Each child got to pick out a pumpkin. Th
en we came back and done the apple tour. First we went to the huge cooler to see where they store them after they are picked. Then we saw where they wash them and sort out the apples. The good ones are sent to the store to sell. The ones a little beat up are sent to be made into cider. And the ones that with a actual hole or cut are thrown back in the orchard for worms to eat.
Next we went to the room where the cider is made. After that everyone got to have a taste of the cider. Next the kids got to go and pick them some apples. Then we all loaded back on to the bus and headed back to school. I was such a joy to be out there and get to have this experience with him. The lord blessed us with beautiful weather and a wonderful day!!

Ok first I will say that I really like your new layout it is really cute. And I really think that I want to go to that orchard that seems really cool to be able to see all of that.
Ooooo.... your new layout looks like brownies! Yummy chocolate! I like it too! And how much fun you had! That is exactly why I love October! Pumpkins and apples and cold crisp skies. We live in a beautiful world! I'm looking forward to bringing my little grandkiddies to the pumpkin patch!
I always loved going to the apple orchard and pumpkin patch when I was in school. I would eat the apples and take the pumpkin over to Rara's (Sis. Shelia). we would then make pumkin bread or pie, and bake the seeds with season salt. I never ate any of the pumpkin stuff..except the seeds...but it was fun cooking it! Glad you guys enjoyed it.
HAHAHA! It DOES look like brownies! LOL!!! yummy... I'm glad you had a great day! That sounds like a very cool field trip! Too fun! I told Tim I missed the apple orchard this year and he said, "I'll take you to the orange orchard! But you'll probably leave with HIVES!" you know...because I'm allergic to CITRIS!! lol
"...because I'm allergic to CITRIS!! lol"
