Pumpkin Patch

Today was Madeline's pumpkin patch field trip, and also her special day, where she gets to provide snack, be the line leader, and bring show and tell. Here you see her show and tell - baby Lorelei.
Getting ready to tour the pumpkin patch.
Looking at the bunnies.

I put this one in here because you can really see her bruise. She tripped off the bottom stair and went face first into the closet corner :(
Daddy and Carly looking at the goats. Madeline didn't want much to do with them.
Cute pre-3's.
Loves her babies!
The baby pigs
Snack time.

I realized that we didn't get any pictures of her/the kids picking out pumpkins... we really did get them - 2 of them... I guess we were just too busy taking pics of everything else :) Guess we'll just have to take pics of them when we carve them :)

Apple Orchard!

Today we went with Madeline's preschool class to pick apples (and a plum) at the Sherwood Orchards. She had a lot of fun!
Here we go - walking to the apple trees.
See ma!
Reach!
Red or green...
Hmm...
Mmm...
Apple picking friends! (and yes, if you are wondering, the girls on either side of Madeline are twins)
She has been asking for several months to ride a school bus. I'm glad today her dream came true! :) :) :)

First day of preschool (and a cute pic of Carly)

Well, it was kind of a pretend day - orientation. We stayed for 45 min. Next week is the real thing!
In front of the books.
