Fall books! I love myself a theme!!! |
Not that I'm a worksheet person, but I just couldn't resist this fall coloring sheet and it just looks so cute sitting on the tables!!!! |
earlier in the week we went to the park and collected leaves, acorns and walnuts, here we were sorting them |
yes, i cracked this baby open myself with a knife and a hammer, lets just say it was "one hard nut to crack!" |
yes, its blurry, but its the only picture i got of him "planting" his walnut tree. |
FYI shelling walnuts stains your hands, for a long time!!! |
His first leaf rubbing. |
He got the concept pretty quickly. We talked about the front and the back of the leaf. How it felt (smooth and bumpy) and that the back of leaf has veins. |
Ta Da!!!! |
decorating his pumpkin |
the "farmer" showing Jamie how to de-kernel his corn |
and after all the kernels popped of the husk he got to dig a prize out of the kernel bucket! |
making a doll out of his corn husk |
and then he saw this and nothing else mattered! |
the first of our FOUR tractor rides! |
This is the tractor driver... Jamie-"Are you Old MacDonald?" The driver- "Well I'm old alright!" |
everything is right with the world when there is a tractor nearby! |
more talking with "Old MacDonald" I guess it would be like if I got to talk to oh I don't know, Prince William maybe? |
In the farm house... she's making butter |
bath time anyone? |
making apple cider |
his first time bobbing for apples!!!! |
tractor ride #2 |
mmmmmmmm I love myself some festival food, especially the spinning potato! |
more apple cider making |
me trying to be a photographer... not so much I know, but I tried |
me-"Can I see your handsome smile please?" |
no, your HANDSOME smile! |
ok now we're getting close! |
oh well good enough! |
"Holy smokes here come the tractor AGAIN!!!!" |
waiting in the really long line for the 3rd or 4th tractor ride of the day! |
and we're back on the tractor! |
Jamie was all about the band! He is watching them intently here with Ga Ga. |
