Apple Holler

Isaac in the corn box.

This is the boys' first trip aboard the "Good Mommy Express" and they couldn't be happier.

Yesterday, my friend, AnnaMarie, and I ventured out in the name of "good-mothering" and took our kids to do something fun. I should say that she is a good mom and would do things like this anyway. I, on the other hand, often ask, "What's in it for me?" If the answer is, "a headache, and a lot of work" then I almost never do it. Well, I did do it, and it wasn't so bad. We went to Apple Holler, an Apple Orchard and apparently in October a pumpkin patch as well. The boys had a ton of fun, as you can see for yourself. The dramatic favorite was the corn seed box. Forget sand--corn is the play substance of choice in the mid-west.
