on the farm

Yesterday we went to Meuer farm for a hayride. It's a lot like The Little Farmer, but with more emphasis on the corn than the apples. They have a really intricate corn maze you can go through, but we opted for the hayride. We were one of their only customers while we were there since it was a week day (I hear they're packed on the weekends), but they ran a hayride just for the 3 of us! It was the perfect day for it. The weather was gorgeous. 

After the hayride, we visited the farm animals: cows, pigs, chickens...and of course Morgan's favorite, the goats! They had a giant tube slide that Morgan giggled the whole way down,
a super cool corn box (like a sand box, but filled with corn instead, and rubber duck races. We capped off our trip to the farm with a caramel apple and Lakefront Brewery (yum!) root beer. 

 His new thing is wearing Daddy's hats. 
Aren't they adorable on him?

 ...but a little large and obstructive at times :)

 Listening intently to the farmer telling us about the cattle.


 He took advantage of being the only ones on the ride, every time the farmer stopped the ride to tell us about something he moved to  different area of the wagon.

 The trees were beautiful with their changing leaves.

 He found some crackers in the diaper bag...
from God knows when, but they made him happy.

 The corn box.
