Farm Party

We had the pleasure of attending a super-adorable Farm Birthday party at our October haunt, pun intended (Underwood Farms, again!)

They had just the cutest cake/cupcakes. I had to share. If I was going to do a farm party, this cake and cupcake combo is right up there on a great idea!...

Oh the cake moment of a party...that is their favorite...For them, the cake is just the vehicle for the frosting. Lick it off, and get back to playing. Except Radley, he can power down a cupcake or three. And aside from cake, which would be their first priority, we had a whole lot of fun!

They had unlimited open fields to pull a wagon as long as they wanted to...

Go on Wagon Rides through the fields...

Play in the hay...have I mentioned how much Maverick likes hay?

Re-explore tractors! (of which they never tire...I usually have to use some sort of lure to get them moving along...like the train)

And then we get stuck at the giant wooden train for an interminable amount of time...

Because truth be told, they love trains a hair more than tractors...but they are neck and neck...

And as is usually common, my boys find a way to push the limits of what was "intended"...and in this instance, it was ok... Brother exploring "under"...

So we scurry...

And we climb...

And we run...

...another Saturday away...

Yet, who knew that the most fascinating thing of the day would be the recycle bin full of bees and empty soda cans...

...and I thought the train and the tractors were patience builders...
