Scarecrow Festival

This is our 3rd time going to the Scarecrow Festival and it was a beautiful sunny warm day to be at an apple farm.

We started our day by making our scarecrow.

Zach and Aaron helped me fill the clothes with hey but, Aaron didn't last long and went off to play and jump in the hey instead.

Katie and Susan painted the head for the scarecrow.


I love the way it turned out so cute and Katie loved that we made it a girl.

Next we went on a hey ride around the farm and we loved seeing all the colors around that were changing on the trees.

Once we got off the tractor we went out to pick our apples and found some nice huge red ones. Nana came with us and the kids had a blast spending time with her. Once our bag and tummy was filled we headed back.

Around the Farm are lots of scarecrows for the contest and we found one dressed in army camo and had to take Susan's picture with it. We love Nick and miss him very much so every chance we get to honor him we do and this was a cute way to keep him fresh in our minds. Aaron really misses him the most and can't wait to see him at Christmas time when he comes home for a visit. We had a great day and can't wait to decorate our front steps with our scarecrow.
