Fall Is In The Air...

Well, not really.  It's been unusually hot for the past 3 or 4 weeks.  We have been at/near record-breaking temps.  Highs near 90 every day!  Not very fall like at all, I'm afraid.  But in the spirit of all things fall, the MOMS Club went on it's annual trip to the cider mill near by.

The kids got to go on a hay ride around the property, took a tour of the pick-ur-own veggies and fruit (the apples aren't ready yet, but we'll be heading back as a family to pick our apples for our homemade applesauce!), and then we were shown how they make their own cider.  The cider at Farnsworth Farms is delicious...Almost as good as Indian Ladder Farms in Albany, NY...almost.  If they would have been serving homemade apple cider donuts there, it would have been a closer race!  (I wish I wouldn't have mentioned that because now I want some...I wonder if Indian Ladder ships...)

Here we are on the hay ride...somehow she's already got dirt all over her face!  Think maybe I should take this girl for a hair cut?  I didn't realize it was in her eyes until I saw this picture!

Our wagon full of moms and their munchkins!

I think she's a dirt magnet...look at her hands!  She must have rubbed them all over her face!

Trying to gather some of the munchkins for a photo-op...not surprised that mine wouldn't cooperate!

Kendall was in a mood that morning.   I know, big shocker, right?  Have I mentioned lately the fact that my daughter is REFUSING to take a nap?  If I put her in her bed for a nap, she gets into ALL sorts of trouble like taking off her diaper and peeing in her bed, climbing out of her pack-n-play head first (she was in there while her sheets were being washed), pulling all of her dresses and skirts out of her closet and throwing them onto the floor, pulling her hair bows off the ribbon hangers on her wall and shoving them under the door, getting out EVERY SINGLE book in her drawers and ripping a few pages, cleaning out her diaper bag and squirting lotion all over herself and the floor and behind the toy box...She has entered the "Terrible Twos" head on with full force!  Lucky Momma, right?!?  But I wouldn't want her any other way...
