A field day in fall

The girls school had a field trip to Ganyard Hill Farm in Durham A few weeks ago, I joined them and I am so glad I did! It was a beautiful day and there was so much for them to do including hayride, corn and sorghum mazes, a giant hay mountain with a slide and a HUGE 'cornbox' - a box filled past my knees with corn, like a sandbox, but with corn.

From the corn maze we picked several ears of corn and brought them over to a hand-crank corn cobber (to remove kernels) and they then fed their corn to the goats (who were full, but they got the idea). Also, they picked their own pumpkin from the patch, Hailey was determined to find the biggest one and Norah was determined to find the smallest one (she must have known she would have to carry that sucker all the way back to the car!).

All in all the girls were EXHAUSTED, we missed lane who had to work, but we had a lovely day :).
