Visit to the Orchard

 On Sunday we took a trip to Tanners Orchard to find some pumpkins and check out a new place.  I had heard about it from some people at work and we picked a perfect day to go.  It was actually fairly warm and sunny, not too muddy after all the rain we had last week.  The place was huge! We spent time walking around and looking at things before we made it to the front where we saw the pumpkins, market, train and more.  They have a petting and feeding area with tons of goats but Ally wasn't too interested in them.  They actually have ramps and bridges complete with a tree house so the goats can walk from building to building. They even have a pulley system so you can send up food to the goats on the roof.  They had all kids of characters made out of pumpkins and Ally's favorite was Minnie of course.  We went through the market and tasted all kids of things like apples, cider, dips, sauces and came home with apple cider donuts, pumpkin bread, 2 different kinds of apples and a few other things to share.  Ally picked out some small pumpkins before we ate lunch and explored a little more.  They have a 2 mile corn maize and an entire play area called the Back 40 but we decided to save that for another time as it was getting really crowded and close to nap time.  Its about 40 minutes from our house but well worth the trip.
