Signs of fall...

We enjoyed our first field trip today with our home school co-op...


We visited an apple orchard...



We picked and picked and picked...


Then we peeled and cored and sliced... and ate...


The day was perfect... so we bought our fall mums...


And then we visited the hiking trails at Hidden Oak Nature Center...


We decided this is where we will have Andrew's birthday party. It will be a search for treasure on his Golden Birthday.



Ahhh... Nothing like a crisp, sunny fall day!

Oh, that is the perfect fall day. We also bought some fall mums today and a few other plants to enjoy some fall color.

Perfect birthday party idea! I love treasure hunts and having it in a forest will make it even better! Great idea

I'm soo jealous that you guys get to still buy plants! Our nurseries are all done! Only our perennials are still alive, any annuals I had are starting to shrivel up & die from the cool fall weather we've been getting this week (up until now we were finally having summer!) Anyway, enjoy them!
