A Day on the Farm

Before the disappointing showing by the Iowa Hawkeyes against Illinois, we headed out to a local Apple Orchard to get Maddox exposed to real Iowa life on the farm. It was a beautiful day out for November and all of us really enjoyed ourselves. The Orchard is a short drive from Grandma and Grandpa Smith's and it was well worth it. Maddox was able to get up close and personal with goats, ducks, turkeys, pigs and other animals. He was not scared at all and thought it was a blast seeing his Dad feed the goats. When he gets a little older, we will have to head out to the Orchard again to play in the "Corn Pool", and to pick yummy apples.

Maddox teaching Mom how to drive a tractor. It wouldn't start because it isn't a John Deere.




"Look I live in a Pumpkin, kind of like Sponge Bob in a Pineapple"




"These things are udderly useless!"



The goats sure were hungry....
