Field Trip!

Elgin and I escorted Henry on his annual fall field trip, making it to the farm just in time to hop on the hay ride with his classmates.

Different school but the same apple farm for a Friday field trip to pick up some apples and a pumpkin...

Henry and some buddies bounded through the corn maze without help from lagging moms (who ended up backtracking to catch them at the exit) but then asked me to go back through the maze with him.  I was flattered and happily accepted the invitation.  He was a confident navigator and got us through in record time, but I could have stayed in the field a little longer with my oldest boy grabbing my hand and yelling out direction choices.

Guzzling apple juice...

A small let's-go-home-peacefully-bribe...

No pics of Elgin.  Fall air coupled with a tight wrap meant that he slept through the whole field trip, both treks through the corn maze and all.
