Fog Willow with the Little Ones

Last week, Rose, Jen, and I spent the afternoon together at Fog Willow Pumpkin Patch - a "time together doing something fun" gift that we had given Jen for her birthday last month.  We went on a Monday while the older boys were at school and had a delightful time with just the little ones.    

Checking their height on the "Welcome" sign.
The playground made of recycled stuff like this fun tire "horse" swing. 
Petting and feeding rabbits, sheep, goats, and ponies
This goat up on the roof cracked me up.  Probably tired of everyone petting him!
Darby the goat, Riley the bull, Abby the horse, and Nicolas the donkey's bottom.
No trip to the patch is complete without a hay ride
Hanging with Jen Jen and Darby on the hay ride

Enjoying yummy caramel apples with Abby at the end of our visit
Love these two little cuties! 
Side note: I was astounded at how much easier a trip like that is without Number 1 in tow. Seriously. Love that boy, but take him on an outing and he gets turbo-injected with excitement and energy. Twin boys?  A breeze.  Spirited Child?  Holy cow - that's tough stuff.  So, again, it was lovely to just have the little people who listened, followed directions, and even let me chat with my friends!
