Apple Picking at Draper Girls Country Farm...

One of the last Fall activities we did was apple picking. Cisco's department actually hosted this field trip for the faculty/staff & their families. We all had a great time :)

Eyeing their bounty...
The picking begins...
Almost done!
There was one very red apple at the top of this tree, so I challenged Cisco to get it...
...and he did!
Sloshing around in mud...that's what boots are for right?!
Too heavy!!!
Bagging our bounty...what a big helper :)
What a fun day near Mt. Hood picking apples...thank you Concordia!!

Lakeview Farms Pumpkin Patch...

We went on a field trip, for Kaila's preschool, to a pumpkin patch. At the last minute, Cisco was able to join us. It was a nice school/family outing and took care of our pumpkin patch duties for the year ;)

Venturing through the maze...
By far, the highlight, was riding the ponies.

Photo session on the pumpkins...haha!

Pacific University Alumni Baseball Game...

Boy, was it nice to watch Cisco play baseball again. It brought back a lot of sweet college memories. I would spend most Saturdays or Sundays during baseball season watching him play (or hoping they'd put him in ;)). It was the first time we had been back to our old college too, in a long time. Like I said, lots of memories...

Out there in the red...
View of the field...
Batter up!
With Derek...
He swung at everything that came his way, but didn't get lucky...
All the alums...
