More Fun at the Orchards

In the past week, we visited two more apple/pumpkin orchards on different days.  We went again with our friends Jack and Charlie and then we went over the weekend with Daddy.  I know I have mentioned this before, but Minnesota really has a lot of these and it is the fun thing to do in the fall.  The trees are gorgeous colors, the weather is crisp and cool, and there are lots and lots of outdoor activities.  It is a fun, albeit somewhat exhausting, day!  Let's just say that the boys (and I) were more than ready to go to bed at the end of our days at the orchard.  Finn was a trooper at each orchard and thankfully the weather was cool, yet warm enough for him to come along.  The pictures tell the story and I have lots to include on this post!

Jumping pillow with our friends Jack and Charlie.  The boys loved this!!  Aiden was even able to do it a little with his leg.

This will WEAR. THEM. OUT.

An interesting fact about bees:  "All worker bees are female."  Enough said.
