Fall Festival

On Saturday we met up with Michelle (our sitter), her husband Joel, and their son Taylor and went to Anderson Farms for their Fall Festival. They have a huge corn maze, and some smaller hay bale mazes, a barrel train, petting zoo, food, pick your own pumpkin patch, all kinds of stuff! We were obviously not the only ones to think it was a good day to visit the farm (75 degrees and sunny, it was great!) because the place was packed! There were hundreds of cars in the parking lot and long lines for about everything the kids wanted to do. We had fun anyway =)

We loaded the boys into the double stroller - not so much because Preston couldn't walk on his own, but because we can't keep up with him if (when) he takes off running!

Haley & Preston wanted a picture with their heads and hands in the picture board, but Preston couldn't reach the head hole - so he improvised. =)

The kids desperately wanted to ride the barrel train - it was kind of like Disneyland; a long, long wait followed by a 3 minute ride. But they had fun. Aaron was a good sport and rode the train so that Preston could go - we were afraid if Preston went without Daddy he might decide to jump out halfway through the ride.

Brekken didn't get to go on the train and looked terribly bored while we waited for the others to come back.

Haley enjoyed feeding the goats.

The kids all wanted their faces painted.

Aaron & I got a kick out of the signs posted around the farm - seems like an effective threat to me!
