Fun at Family Tree

(new stuff on eat & drink)

Last weekend I took Cassidy to Family Tree Nursery to enjoy some free fun. There were animals and a lot of free food. It was a nice little outing and if I had been thinking I should have walked since it was just down the street.
Cassie enjoyed the bluegrass music, especially the woman playing the washboard. When we came home she pointed to the one on our mantle and said she wanted to get it down and play it. 
 She loved jumping in the moonwalk bubble thing. She waited in line very patiently and jumped like Neil Armstrong on the moon.

 That is one happy little girl.
 She decorated a free little pumpkin with stickers and puffy pom-poms and glitter (thanks Big Cassie). She even drew a crooked smiley face on it.
 Unfortunately one of his little eyes didn't make it back home. He is a one-eyed happy harvested pumpkin and she doesn't mind one bit.
 Can you see the satisfaction on her face?
 Then she potted a beautiful purple and orange pansy. She has no problem rolling up her sleeves and getting dirty. Well, maybe she didn't roll up her sleeves...
 The pansy is now in our new flowerbed out front. Wait for that post.
 Then we met up with Noah and played in the box of corn. This is a really smart idea and the kids enjoyed it so much.

 I asked them to look at me for a picture and this is Cassie posing for the picture but trying to see if Noah was smiling for the photo also. Silly girl.
These are their silly faces. Mima was pretty sure Noah had corn kernels in his pull-up. I would put money on it, since he intentionally put corn in his pockets. I hope Paul had fun finding that.

It was a bittersweet adventure. It would be nice to have three cute little pumpkins to show off and three beautiful pansies in the front . I wonder what harvest time is like for Wyatt and Zeke.

Looks like Cassie had a perfect day...she'll probably remember it forever.

You have such a sweetheart of a girl! I pray you find little joys each day as you go through this Autumn season. I bet they are seeing colors we have never seen before...

what a beauty she is. And nice photography!

I might take you up on one of those books...the title of the 1st sounds intriguing. What's it about?
