Country Adventures

After nap time, we got back in the car and headed to Country Adventures in Blythewood with a group of friends.  It was such a neat farm and very hands on for all the kids!  We’re already looking forward to our next trip!  We really enjoyed our time with James, Maddox, Stuart, and sweet Anne Eliz, Sawyer and Mary Prater,Sarah Grace, Ramsey (I missed a picture of Henry), and Coleman!After the kids played with and peaked at the animals and farm equipment, we took a hay ride to the pumpkin patch where all the kids got to pick out a small pumpkin. Jack picked a little pumpkin but did NOT want me to take his picture!  It was the perfect Fall setting, so I was really hoping for a good picture, but I’m quickly learning that if Jack doesn’t want a picture, we won’t get a picture-oh well!  (By the way, we’ve been to the Pumpkin Patch three times now!  They’re going to think he doesn’t have any other clothes!)I got some cute ones of the Renders, though! We got back on board and took a longer hayride around the farm and by a beautiful lake, and then they dropped us off to eat.  They grilled hotdogs for us and then we roasted marshmallows! Jack enjoyed his first bag of chips and his first marshmallow!I think the Render boys enjoyed the marshmallows, too! He watched the older kids take their turns at the camp fire, and then he roasted a few, too!  But they were just for fun.  They ended up with pine straw and dirt on them!They all ran around a bit more and then said their goodbye’s to the animals.  Look at the cute matching boys!!We had super fun time with all the kids-and the mommies!, and look forward to making this another fun Fall tradition!  Thanks for including us, Elizabeth!
