Fun at the Farm!

My MoM's club had it's Fall picnic at Russo's Farm this past weekend.  I hesitated a while on deciding whether or not to go.  Some said that the kids are too young, but others told me that we'd have fun and the kids would enjoy it.  We ended up going, but knew we'd need at least a third adult to help wrangle the crew!  Tony's parents were up for the challenge so we got up nice and early last Saturday morning, got everyone dressed and ready to go.  It was supposed to be a pretty chilly day so we made sure we brought their winter coats, hats and mittens too!  We arrived (only a little late), but just in time to get on the wagon pulled by a tractor to head out to the pumpkin patch.

They didn't seem to mind the bumpy ride and once we arrived at the pumpkin patch, we let them roam around.  Olivia seemed to like the pumpkins the most, Tony just sat down next to them and camped out and Amelia had a difficult time walking amongst all the vines that were left on the ground. 



After each baby picked a pumpkin we loaded back onto the wagon to head back to the main area where they had a few other things to do.  They had a huge sand pit with other toys, but I didn't want to start them eating sand at such an early age.  We pulled them around in the metal wagons they had and rode the hay horses.  Little Tony really seemed to like this little car that my friend Nancy's daughter (Anya) was 'driving'

We stayed a little longer and took pictures with my whole MoM's group - we had one little incident - Amelia fell and scraped her head - no blood though!  We did end up with a nice family photo and a few other cute pictures of the trio.

After the farm, we went to Halo Farms for our weekly milk/egg run to pick up our 4 1/2 gallons of milk and 4 dozen eggs.  Everyone was getting a bit hungry after that so we decided to hit the diner and get some lunch.  The babies ate well - and really enjoyed their dessert including little Tony with his chocolate pudding.

A good time was had by all and I'm really glad we went!
