One of the main attractions at Tanner's Orchard, besides the apples, is the goats. The cute goats have their own bridge that takes them up and over the walkway and down to the other side.
Lydia was startled at first to be so close to one goat.
But then you can see she smiled and even reached out to it. It was a really cold day on Thursday.
Eventually Lydia warmed up to the idea of getting out of the stroller and exploring the playground that had a mini golf course.
The weatherman said we'd get a "significant warm up" on Saturday, and we did. It was a very nice day to use our grill outside and go to the Morton Pumpkin Festival. Did you know that 80% of all canned pumpkin comes from Libby's in Morton, IL? Pumpkin ice cream was a hit. Yes, Lydia still likes to eat with her hands sometimes, in addition to a spoon, or "spoo," as Lydia seems to only be able to say the first sound of a word. The pumpkin chili was sold out; we will have to go earlier next year to find out what that tastes like.

Yummy pumpkin icecream
Hmmmm, I'm thinking the ice cream was a better choice over the pumpkin chili anyday!! Looks like you are enjoying the season.
