Lily's Preschool Field Trip

Spent a wonderful morning touring Hunt Club Farms with Lily's Preschool class. We took a hayride, enjoyed the petting zoo, ate a picnic lunch with friends and picked a pumpkin in the pumpkin patch. These are the best parts about being a stay at home Mom, I can share these special days with the girls!

Hunt Club Farm

We had beautiful weather for our morning at Hunt Club Farm. The girls had a blast experiencing all the farm life. We enjoyed a hayride, the petting farm, the pumpkin patch and playing around on the playground and tractor. The best part, watching Lily and Cailyn having a hay fight in the huge mound of hay. Em's favorite part, all the special attention from Auntie!

Pumpkin Patch With Daddy

Our last afternoon with Daddy was spent picking out pumpkins at Hunt Club Farm. It was a beautiful afternoon and a fun way to usher in fall before Daddy left. Enjoy the pics....there are lots more on the way!

We love and miss you already Daddy!

Hunt Club Farm Harvest Festival

Here are some of my favorite pictures of the day. See the slideshow below for more photos.

October 28, 2007: We spent Sunday morning at the Hunt Club Farm Harvest Fest. It was our first crisp fall day since arriving in Virginia. We layered the girls up in warm clothes and headed out to the festival.

Hunt Club Farm does a great job of setting up a family atmosphere. They have many activities including: a Huge Pumpkin Patch, Petting Farm, Day-time farm tour, Hay Rides & Pony Rides, Mums, Cornstalks and Straw, Huge Hay Stack, Live Entertainment: DJ With Music, Games & FREE Prizes. Inflatable Rides:Giant Obstacle Course, Kid’s Caterpillar Gorilla Island Slide & Moon Bounces!

Lily enjoyed almost every one of the events listed above, while Emma slept the morning away in her stroller. Lily especially loved the "Adrenaline Rush" obstacle course. It was a moon bounce with climbing walls and slides. She was in heaven. We also took a hay ride and walked around in the Petting Farm. There were even big turkeys and swans running around.

We had a great time and I was able to get some fun pictures of the girls enjoying the fall season after Emma woke from her nap. It is so nice to be participating in family activities rather than unpacking and organizing all weekend. The house may not be completely finished, but we're ready to have some fun again!
