Fun Fall at Arrowhead Orchard

We made some yummy brownies - brownies on bottom, layer of yummy symphony bars and junior mints, then another layer of brownies.  Wow!  Note to self: don't use junior mints again - much too hard to get the brownies out!
We found a great Groupon to a local apple orchard, which just happens to be where I've loved buying apples the past two years!  We got lost in the corn maze.  Emily and I teamed up while Andy went with Annie and Mitchell.  Ben went solo.  Emily and I definitely got our money's worth of time in the maze!!!
Teamwork!  These barrels were so fun!  Ben and I ran inside one to get it up the hill.  We ended up needing Andy to help us!  The kids also had fun climbing all over the hay bales.  However, we quickly learned why farmers wear pants when working around hay - lots of scratches!
The bucking bronco ride was apparently really fun, although with my kids, they love anything with a saddle!
Hay ride.  The hay ride was included in the entrance price.  The pumpkin from the pumpkin patch that the hay ride stopped at was not... Mitchell loved crawling through this tunnel!
 
It was a great day, made even better by the honeycrisp apples we bought on the way out.  Fall in Ohio means awesome apples EVERY day; snack time is the best part of the day!
