Barnyard Fun

Here's the rest of the weekend... I took about 250 pictures and here's about 50 of them.  The first is from camping - we drove along a bumpy gravel road and got to the very primitive campground after dark (no bathroom, no water, no lights, no fee station, nothing) - basically just an open area in the middle of nowhere that they call a campground.  Great pick Alex...  
We heard something wandering around outside our tent in the middle of the night...creepy.  Especially since there wasn't anyone else out there (and no one would be checking on us either) - just us and the critters.  Looking up at the stars through our tent were pretty though.


The pictures below are from our outing to Avila Valley Barnyard, which I saw recently on a friend's blog (thanks for letting us know about this fun place!).  I think we'll make it a yearly tradition as well.  We had a great time picking apples and pumpkins, hayride, feeding farm animals, eating yummy food, hay maze and hay jumping.  The boys also got to enjoy the fun with cousin Nicholas.

So glad you checked out the farm in Avila. Looks like you had a fun day. I hope you sampled some of their pumpkin fudge, one of my favorite things there!

Great pictures!

My favorite pic is the little one of Nathan doing the chicken dance with a pumpkin that probably weighs more than him!

Very fun time, thanks for sharing

Is that a hotdog, a pickle, and an ice cream cone??? What exactly was the good food?

This looks like a great place!

You are always doing such fun things as a family. Love it!

Loved your camping story too. Sometimes it's so hard to choose. That better/best dilemma.
