Washington Farms

Allison and I took the kids to Washington Farms. I have done this the past three years and the kids love it! I usually take the kids dressed up in their Halloween costumes, but it was so hot when we got there that Ashley didn't want to dress up as Cinderella. Wylie, on the other hand, was ready to be the Red Power Ranger.

Elizabeth met us there with her kids, Katherine and Christopher. Here are Tyler, Ashley, and Wylie standing by the big hay bale spider at the front entrance...

The kids all wanted to pet the farms animals first. They thought the goats were pretty fun...

Next, it was on to the duck races. Wylie loved this, and he was the only one of the three kids who could do it on his own. I had to help Ashley out a little so the water would actually come out and move the duck down the pipe. Here is Ally helping Tyler do the water pump...

Wylie and Ashley racing to get their ducks down the pipe. Notice, Ashley's duck hasn't made it too far since she can't pump hard enough to get the water out...

Wylie would send a duck down the pipe and then run to the other side and send another duck back to us. Go, Wylie, go...

Ashley and Wylie riding the cow train. They thought it was pretty fun. This was the first year they could ride it without Mommy coming along. I ended up riding with Tyler, so he could go...

We just put Tyler in the cow with Wylie to get a cute picture, but then neither of them would cooperate and look at the camera...

Here is Wylie doing the tricycle race...look at the concentration on his face...

Here's Ashley wishing she could go...I had to push Ashley along because her feet didn't reach the pedals...

Christopher couldn't get the tricycle to work either, so he found something else he could use in the race...

Ashley getting on the slide...

And, she's off...

Wylie, Ashley, and I stopped to get a picture in front of the wagon. When Wylie saw this wagon, he said, "Why does the wagon look so bad." We were headed to go on the hayride and I think he thought this was the wagon we were going to ride on for the hayride...

Ashley with the big pumpkins...this was the best shot I could get of her...

Wylie, Ashley, Tyler, Katherine, and Christopher on the hayride. Boy was it hard to get them all to look at the camera...

Sweet Ashley, enjoying the hayride...I think I need to get her some new pants, these are getting a little short on her...

This was the best picture I could get of Wylie in the pumpkin patch...
