Hay, Hay, Hay

Last night our homeschool group had a 'Fall Festival' type deal. Most of these consist of 'Halloween' type activities (which we do not do), but this was a nice old-fashioned cook-out and hayride. We had a blast. They had a zipline that Zach finally had the nerve to try...took him awhile, but he did it. I will not go on one of those though! They had a homeade merry-go-round that the kids had a blast riding on. They had a 'train' behind a four-wheeler that they loved riding on. We roasted marshmallows, ate S'mores and went on a hayride. It was so much fun. A bit chilly, but I brought along a blanket and Zach kept us all entertained on our end of the trailer with his antics. He was quite the character. We were out in the bayous of Mississippi! Not even sure where we were, but it was entertaining. At one point we ended up in water at a boat launch. The driver purposely decided to back up into it and of course who were the ones sitting at the end of the trailer? I was pretty freaked out that we'd get wet, but he finally stopped! Made for a good laugh. The kids had a blast. H made a new friend, G was pretty quiet but I could tell he enjoyed himself, and J was having fun but also asking to go home. We were all pretty tired by the time we got home. Good thing we got an extra hour of sleep last night! Here are some pictures of us enjoying ourselves! Sorry they're a bit fuzzy...guess that's what happens when you take pictures at night!
