A cowhorse!!!

We finally made it to the apple orchard :) I am so excited to have a ton of apples to make treats with...pies, cake, bread and caramel apples-even caramel apple icecream sundaes... mmmmmm. The orchard we go to has this tree lined curvey hilly driveway to get to the parking lot. It is beautiful. When you get to the top of the hill, there is a small fenced in area for the horses that you can ride around the orchard and then sit by the bon fire when you're done. (We have never done that- but I think it would be FUN!!) One of the horses had brown spots on it- and not the little spots all over, but the BIG spots like a cow. I hear Andy in the back seat make a sound...you know the sound when a kid is amazed and sees something weird or amazing for the first time?? Yeah- thats the one! Then he says... "Look! A cowhorse!!! " He wasnt kidding or being funny. He really thought that it was a cow...and a horse :) I really wish they wouldn't grow up. This is so much fun!!! Although Ryan didn't like it there. He cried about 90% of the time. I don't know if he was tired or just didnt like to be cold- but we only lasted 30-45 minutes there. No tractor pulled wagon ride through the orchard to hand pick our own apples this year. But that is ok :) We might go back this week some night and try one more time! Crazy- yep. But that is 1/2 the fun!
