Fieldtrip!

So, tomorrow's the big field trip to the pumpkin farm. This was a lot of fun last year and I'm expecting it to be so again this year. I won't be able to pick up anything for myself, so I'll have to find another time to get my own pumpkin, but watching the kids muck about in the fields, deciding which little mini-pumpkin is just the perfect thing for them is very sweet. Plus, the farmer lady does a very entertaining (if slightly long) skit with various vegetables and hats, and there are farm animals. Donkeys, pigs and chicks if I remember correctly from last year. And there's apple cider. Mmm...
*Note to self -- take camera.
I was inspired by all of this to go off and find appropriately seasonal icons and found several very pretty ones (including this one) made by
cherrystonelane.
Of course, a field trip means something on the magnitude of 43 unrestrained children (age 4) on a school bus for forty minutes there, run around exhausting themselves and then forty minutes back. Someone will cry (at least one, possibly more). Given the group we have, someone will pee themselves (and if we're really lucky, that's all) and someone (possibly the same someone) will probably try to run away at some point. Still, I get to wear my big boots and play on the farm, so I'm happy. *grins*
