Orchard


Along with fall comes cooler temps, leaves falling off the trees, and of course pumpkin patches!  We took Brayden to Center Grove Orchard and had a great time.   They have so many fun activities for kids that Brayden stayed up past his usual nap time because he was having so much fun.  We started our afternoon by going for a swim in the corn pool.  A huge barn that has hay bales as the perimeter and is filled with you guessed it, corn!  They had slides that you could slide down into the corn pool.  That was Brayden's favorite part.  He wanted to do "more slide".

 Brayden wanted help because it was hard to walk in.

 Hi Mommy!

 This face explains just how much fun Brayden was having driving the tractors.  Brayden didn't even need to make the tractor go he was just as excited to sit on it and watch the older kids ride it.

 Daddy teaching Brayden how to drive.  He even gave Brayden a hand so he didn't run into the bumpers.


 Brayden loved the goats and would walk right up to them and say "Here a go"  I just love his little voice.   We are still working on having him hold his hand flat because the goats had to actually work to get the food out of his fingers but he didn't mind as he would reach out to get "more snack" to feed the goats.

 Brayden learned something new at the Orchard today and it was how to do a sling shot with apples.  Brayden got the hang of it pretty quickly.

Brayden showing us the way in the 4 acre corn maze.  Don't worry we didn't get lost and Brayden even helped find the way out.

Center Grove Orchard has so many activities that Brayden had a blast.  I will be making a second post with a few more of the activities we did while we were there.  By the way, check out the beautiful weather since we were in short sleeves!  I love when the weather is nice like this.
