pumpkin patch + apple orchard fun

good morning, friend! i hope you’re having a fantastic week so far..did you have monday off?!
zach is a teacher and his school was one of the lucky ones who had off so the girls and i took full advantage. we decided to make a day of heading to a local farm that has so much to offer: a pumpkin patch, apple orchard, animals, produce and of course all of the fall goodies for the home. if you’re local to the dayton area, you have to check out tukens orchard and farm market!

i was so excited because although we took them to a pumpkin patch last year, they were teeny and had absolutely no idea what was going on.
we’re at such a fun stage where everything is new and exciting..i couldn’t wait to see their faces!

toddler-picnicafter everyone filled up on peanut butter + honey sandwiches, applesauce, and yogurt, we made our way to the apple orchard.  aside from our own apple trees, this was the first time the girls had been to an orchard…and they licked every apple they could get their hands on.
