Magoo has been learning a ton at school. I'm sure it's due to both a mental growth spurt but also exposure to new and more things at school. We asked him today if he knew what an orchard was he said, "Yeah." a typical answer to this type of question, then foolishly we always ask him the follow up question, "What is an orchard?" Today he surprised us, straying from scripted, "I don't know" to "Where fruit grows on trees." What a smarty.
We both had a half day off of work today and being a nice day took him up to Afton Apples. We had a fantastic time, though, I was a little disappointed in the orchard, I think of it as being a little more expensive but you get more out of it, you did get tractor drawn hay rides and both an orchard and a pumpkin patch, but other than that I'm not sure it was worth it. I hope I remember this in the future and stick with the more local homegrown, not bigger-more-expensive-is-better orchards in the future.
None-the-less we had fun, we road the tractor hay rides around, picked apples, walked through the pumpkin pasture (as Magoo called it) and each selected a pumpkin, then played on the swings a little, finally fed the animals. I have to tell you it was hilarious, the donkey started coming to the fence when he saw Magoo had food, when I bent down to take a picture the donkey let out the loudest, longest bray I've ever heard from donkey. Magoo buried his head in papa's lap but didn't cry, just said, "That was loudest I ever heard."
Is that a worm hole?
Look I picked an apple.
Need I say more
