We had a teacher workday during the last week of September, and so decided to spend it visiting The Farm at Swan’s Trail, our usual pumpkin-picking place.
I admit it was a little early to pick pumpkins. The poor gourds didn’t have much of a chance of lasting all the way until Halloween, but who cares? FALL IS OFFICIALLY UPON US.

We got to play on big slides, jumping pillows, and explore a corn maze. Some of our friends were there, too, which made it especially enjoyable. I wonder, though, if this was the last time Jeff will be game to play with the other kids.

Katie really, really didn’t want to walk through the corn maze, so I took her apple picking while the others went with their friends.
We also took a ride on the hay wagon. This is the face Katie made when the tractor’s big engine started up.

And did I mention the kittens? SO MANY LITTLE BLACK KITTENS!
