Ditmars Apple Orchard - October 12th

My family was meeting in Council Bluffs this morning to get Grandpa George back to Seward.  It worked out that the boys and I got to join everyone for breakfast.  Henry was grumpy he had to miss Sunday School, but he was very excited to see Papa George!   

After breakfast, we went over to play at the park for a bit.  

This isn't slow motion, I swear.  That slide is just REALLY slow :)






Grandma bought Henry Stuffy after breakfast, so Stuffy came with us to the park.  He had fun too.



 This is Sam's favorite thing at every park.  Our park trips consist of him saying, "Mom, wanna see this!" over and over and over.


 After the park, we went to Target to get some pumpkin decorating supplies.
 After we got home, I realized that even though we had 6 pumpkins at home, they weren't really the correct size for the pumpkin decorations we had.  So we loaded back up in the car, drove back to town, and took advantage of a Groupon I had for the apple orchard.

The last few years, the boys and I have enjoyed trips over to visit Ditmars Apple Orchard.  They have a great deal each fall where you can get two apple cider slushies, apple cider donuts, and passes for four to get into the orchard.  That deal sold out quickly this year, but I got a similar deal. 

 This picture pretty much captures my feeling about these apple cider donuts.  I was trying to be good on my diet, so I didn't eat one.  I drool when I look at this picture of Sammy with that donut!






 After snacks and playing for a while, we rode up to the pumpkin patch to search for the perfect pumpkins.








After we found our pumpkins, we loaded them in the car and went up to wander through the corn maze.



 We made it out. 
We came home, decorated our pumpkins, and finished up the rest of our Sunday relaxing!   What a fun weekend.
