We took a hay ride to the highest point of the farm.
The girls loved it. I'm always amazed at the simple things that amuse them so much. They're not usually loud girls, but they were definitely the goofiest kids on the wagon that day as they laughed and told stories the whole time. Any hay ride that makes them that happy...
...Even one that a cow tries to join...
...I'd happily take again if it means I get to sit across from these sweeties to see them enjoy it!
It turns out the girls may make excellent little farmers someday if they enjoy stacking hay bales as much as they loved jumping off them, and sliding down them...
...And falling face first into them. Just looking at this picture makes me feel like I need to sneeze. What it doesn't show is how after each climb to the top of the hay, she had to start the five minute long process of taking her boots off, shaking the hay out of them, while at the same time getting hay stuck to the bottom of her socks, putting the boots on the wrong feet, then starting the process all over again.
This precious newborn calf was only a few days old.
Alyssa enjoyed studying this map and finding out about all the prime cheese locations in our state.
And this picture is because Kahiwa always likes to tell Granddaddy what a good climber she is ~ well she's been at it again!
We picked out lots of pumpkins in all shapes and sizes, and got some "rainbow corn" as Rebekah calls it. Alyssa agonized over picking out the perfect gourd, which I'll have to see if I can get a picture of later, it's unique!
It was a perfect pumpkin day!
How all good days on the farm ought to end.
Happy Halloween.
