Field Trip

Last week Calvin had a field trip to the pumpkin and apple farm. 

 We had much better weather than last year. 

 The kids got to learn about how apples grow and how the bees help. 

 The kids then got to pick out apples from the crates. 

 The apple trees did not like this past winter and summer so there weren't a ton of apples so the orchard let each kid pick just one apple of the trees. 

 Of course the kids wanted to help themselves to an apple or two. 

 Then they got to pick out a pumpkin. 

 Calvin has a tendency to pick the first pumpkin he sees and refuse to look  around for better ones. Today was no exception. 

 After that the kids got a snack

 and got to look around at the animals. 

 To kill time, we hung around for a bit and let the kids burn a little extra energy. 

 Calvin got to try his first carmel apple. It was a sticky mess and he pretty much just ate the carmel off the apple. 

Another fun little field trip!
