Apples, Corn, and Tractors

 We went apple picking on Friday morning.  It was a cool morning and so much fun.  We rode on the "hayrack" (never heard it called that) out into the rows of apple trees.
 Doesn't Avery seem impressed? 
 Grandpa showed Ethan how to pick an apple and then eat it.  That by far was his favorite part.  He liked to pick one, take a bite then put it in the bag.  The picture below is one of my favorites!




 Such an awesome picture...just missing Uncle Mike...he was playing golf.

 Only picture we got of the two of them at the apple orchard, soon after I snapped this Ethan got up and Avery fell backwards. 
 On Saturday morning before the wedding we went to a farm about 30 minutes south of Moline.  We had a great time in the corn maze, shooting corn cobs out a air gun, and slinging pumpkins through the air.

 Avery had a nice ride...
 We only completed half of it. Supposedly the easy half, but 50 minutes later, we were over it, or at least Aunt Drew and I were. :)
 We let Ethan guide us through the maze, because we figured it didn't really matter which way we went.  He took us left every time.  I am surprised that we made it.
 So many dead ends. 



 Michael made the corn in a huge tire about 120 yards away...he won the pumpkin below.  It was big.

 After the farm we went to visit John Deere.  We didn't get to spend a lot of time there, because we had to get back to get ready for Greg and Brooke's wedding. We did however have fun climbing on the big tractors.  Ethan was in heaven.



 The pictures don't do it justice.  They are big.
