Thirty-five degrees. Perfect pumpkin patch weather, right?
Not so much, but it was the day that Connor's first grade class was scheduled to go, and that's what we did on Friday.
It started off with the informative video about the orchard (in an open air tent). Next was the tour of operations. Then the token sample of apple cider. Followed by the requisite hay ride through the wet and muddy fields. Then the kids picked pumpkins from the bins in front of the store (too muddy to go into the fields). Next was lunch (also in the open air tent)
And last was a quick trip to the playground. The big slides, the rolling tubes, the pedal tractors. Lots and lots of fun. For just a little while, then back to the buses for the ride back to school.
It was cold. But that didn't stop Connor from having a big time. He had a smile on his face the whole day.
And because it wasn't enough to have a school adventure, he had another one lined up right after ...
