Rennie Orchard fun

What a gorgeous day for a field trip.  We had a blast picking pumpkins, exploring coyote dens, seeing apple cider made in a wooden cider press, taking a surprise hike up a hill when the truck couldn't pull the weight of our full wagon and picking apples.  A huge thank you to all of the parents that joined in the fun and helped our field trip to be a success.

Giggles and silliness are essentials for a successful field trip
