face painting

O had his hand on my leg the entire time on the train ride.......even though he is brave, I think he was a little scared








Yesterday we spent the afternoon at Schnepf Farms. We wanted to get some pumpkins and we have never been there before.
So we took a little road trip to Queen Creek.
The only thing I would say, is that I didn't find cider and apple cider donuts there- so I still am on that quest for a place like Edwards Apple Orchard back in IL.
They did though, have a lot of things for the kids that was part of the price of the ticket, so it was a lot of fun.
We were able to see a a K9 frisbee catching show, there was face painting, candle making , stuffing your own scarecrow, a playground, tricycle hay maze, a corn maize, trainride, carnival rides, pony rides, carousel, live music, sweet shop and their famous chili. The kids were wiped by the end of the day, and so was Rob and I : )
Apparently, they have your own garden picking in November/December and they also have holiday activities, so I think we will be back.
