Aullwood Apple Fest

Today the kids and I decided to get out while we had the break in the rain and go to the Aullwood Apple Fest. I have to say I was disapointed and so was Landon. First of all this was called an apple fest, I saw a lot of baked apple type things, pies for 20$ =0 and other food related things. Everything cost money inside I was shocked especially since I paid to get in adn its no different than the farm right down the road from our house and its free to go there. The website said Johney Appleseed would be there and after 2 hrs we never saw him. Landon was very upset about this part. I guess they have been talking about it at school. It wasn't all bad, they had animals and the kids enjoyed walking the farm and calling to the turkeys. They made some craft type items and I painted their faces, but still we left feeling like "where are the apples?" I thougth this was an orchard and we would be picking apples and taking them home to make art projects and homemade apple sauce. All in all it was not worth what we paid to go in, but the entertainment was wonderful! Chris Rollins was singing songs about animals that were so funny he had landon in tears about beaver poop. lol He is still talking about that song. So next weekend we will venture out to our first pumpkin patch of the season. I am hoping we see some pumpkins there. lol 
I am not happy with the collaged images after having to resize them they look bad=( But its sooo late and I need to get to bed so, it will have to do.
