Off to the orchard...



The family headed out to Germantown, MD to Butler's Orchard for a fun afternoon in the wonderful fall weather. First stop was the slides - after taking a look at the two, Evie opted for the "Little Jack" slide.

Then Ellie went down with Daddy - but I think she was not too impressed at the speed of the slide.  On to bigger slopes, Daddy! 

Evie enjoyed the hayloft and jumping into the piles of hay, although she did end up having straw everywhere.  


Mommy and Ellie watch Evie play in the hay, which wasn't quite Ellie's thing.  

Wahoo!  


Ellie does some crawling through the wooden train. 
 

Evie concentrates on pumping the water for the rubber ducky derby. 

Where is Ellie taking a break? 

A giant tractor wheel of course! 

Our beautiful girl, reflecting on the meaning behind it all. 

while Evie runs through the haybale maze... 

Hey, who let the pigeon.. I mean Evie... drive the bus?!?  Ellie and Mom hold on tight and buckle our seatbelts. 

Farmers Ellie and Marc on the John Deere. 

Two sisters walking hand in hand. 

On the way out, Evie graduates to the Pumpkin Falls slide.  Hey, in all the excitement, we forgot to go pumpkin hunting!  Oh, well, something to look forward to next week.
