Beautiful Weekend

Searching in the pumpkin patch while we waited for our tractor to come pick us up.
Another HUGE pumpkin.

Climbing all over the HUGE pumpkins.



Cheese-ball! I love it!

Trevor loved the little goat, so he sat down next to it smiling from ear to ear.



Apple at Hidden Hollow Orchard

Big weekend! My dad is in town for about two weeks. I will not be able to see him as much as I'd like since I have to work on the weekdays, but we were able to spend the day with him today. The only unfortunate part of today was that we could not be in Morehead to cheer on Zach for his triathalon. We left a hidden card in his car though to let him know we were thinking of him and he actually got home today before we even did. Beautiful weather for him this year though!!
So, our plan was to go to Hidden Hollow Orchard and then to Henry's Arc. However, the apple orchard didn't have any apples left because the weather made everything come in early this year. So, we decided we could just go out to Huber's as Dad and I wanted some of their seasonal wine anyway. So, Trevor had a nice nap on the way and when we got there we went into the petting zoo kids area. The kids fed a bunch of the animals. Trevor was not scared this time and loved feeding them! He loved petting them and hugging them (even the cement animals that were decoration). The kids went on the big slides and then we got lost in a huge corn maze. We never did find the end of it! Trevor was starving and pretty fussy, so we went straight to get lunch after the kids area. After lunch we headed over to take a tractor ride to go out and pick some apples. They are huge apples and taste great, we picked green delicious. The kids loved them. We did have a problem with them eating half and then throwing and getting a new one, but that's all part of it. It's a bit early for pumpkins, however, we did get one because it was the most perfectly shaped pumpkin and still on the stem. We also got a bunch of fresh bread and pumpkin muffin loafs as well as some pumpkin ice cream, yummy!
The kids both fell asleep on the way home and continued their naps when they got home. I've spent all day yesterday and now all night trying to fix my printer. We did everything we could think. My dad and I took it back, bought a new one and still can't get it to work. I've given up! Very frustrating. I don't know what we are going to do! Very tired, so I'd better go rest before the big week at work.
