Pumpkin Patch & Orchards

We went to Apple Annie's in Willcox today. The weather was so nice, it was definitely worth the trip. It turns out the kids could care a less about any fruit or vegetables that could be picked, but they did have fun on the hay ride and in the corn bins. I will have to say that the trip was better than any previous trips to the pumpkin patch in years past. All in all it was a good time, but maybe they will have even more fun next year? After a lot a fresh air, sunshine, and missed naps led to some very tired cranky children by the end of the day. Some of the pictures reflect that. ;)


Pictures & Videos:

The apple orchards! The trees were so puny looking, probably only about 8-10 feet tall at most, but I guess they produce a lot of fruit. The trees themselves just looked nothing like the large beautiful trees we are used to seeing in the Pacific Northwest orchards. Life is hard for plants in the Arizona desert!

We didn't spend much time here, because it was super crowded, and the kids were really just a bit too young to enjoy any u-pick apple type adventures.










The sunflower fields! Aren't they beautiful?

And one cranky Lincoln too! He has a hard time walking on uneven surfaces. When he trips he gets upset. Poor baby. Too bad he was so upset in this first picture, it was probably the best picture of June we have gotten in a long time!






The girls posing at the pumpkin photo shoot area. Roxy is at the stage where she thinks it is really fun to grab at peoples faces. Sticking her fingers in eyes, noses, mouths, and pulling hair. June was not in the mood to take that treatment, but Roxy was having a blast!



In this picture Andy had just told June to kiss the baby, that is why Juney is puckered up. :)




June had a blast playing in the corn bins. She got so much corn in her diaper!



She just discovered the corn down her diaper! Lol!





Andy was burying Lincoln in the corn. Lincoln thought that that was pretty fun! He had a good time in there.
