Day Trip to Evans Orchard

I've had this post in draft for a few weeks so here it is, finally.

Today we went to Evans Orchard with a group of ladies from our ward. There was no school for Porter today so it was a perfect excuse to get the kids out of the house. I love being able to pick fresh fruit and am really missing Green Bluff in Spokane.
There was tons of stuff to do. Here is the tractor ride that took you to different parts of the orchard.
Luckily I remembered to pack lunches. Cheese!

The boys' favorite part was the play area and Coolidge could not get enough of this Corn Hole game.

Here's a video of him in action.


Here are the boys making their way through the hay castle maze. They also had a small corn maze.

This picture cracks me up! Mason was stuck like that for a few minutes trying to decide which way to go.
Coolidge even found a little tunnel just his size.
And if you have boys you will totally appreciate the power of a huge dirt pile. Yeah, they were covered from head to toe by the time we left.
Porter and Campbell loved these huge tubes.
Unfortunately, if you lost your balance you had to hold on for dear life until the tube stopped rolling. This was NOT one of Mason's favorite things.
And I even had a great time on this slide. A little bumpy but it was fast.

Mason and Coolidge were fascinated by this goat and wouldn't let me leave.
And of course there was apple picking. Can you tell it was a posed picture? Work with me guys.
There were rows and rows of trees to pick from so we got a great variety. We got a huge bag of apples, but I have a feeling it won't last very long. The apples are delicious and I even got a gallon of apple cider that is amazing. I wish I had gotten 2.


Oh well, there's always next year.

I haven't looked at your blog for a while and holy cow! Your baby is huge. He looks like a little boy, not a baby. Your family is so cute.

I like how your boys pose. That looks like a fun place. A Hallie Heaven. =)
