Homestead Harvest Festival


October 7th: We went to the Homestead Harvest Festival in Hilliard. This is our 2nd year, it's a small festival so it's a lot of fun! Here are Daddy, Drew, and Katie outside the caboose that you can walk through at the park.



Drew, Katie, and Alex waiting for the hayride!
Getting on the hayride...as you can see, Alex is already not a fan of the hayride.
Riding around on the hayride. You can see the field of scarecrows behind us. Alex spent the enitre hayride exactly as she is in this picture, except for the part where she was sobbing!
A close up of sadness. Poor thing!
I am happy to report that Alex perked right up after we got off of the dreaded hayride. And then even more once we decided to check out the sno-cones, seeing as though it was 91 degrees and the sun was just beating us. Not very fall-like! Here are the kids and their crazy father enjoying their sno-cones. When we got the first sno-cone, Alex started yelling "I want to lick it. Lick it, lick it!" (Can you tell we spent too much time at the ice cream store this summer?) So, here's a short video of her "Lick it!"




Drew and Katie posing with a scarecrow...this is post sno-cone as you can see the grape evidence all over the fronts of their shirts!
Checking out the scarecrow competition...some pretty interesting scarecrows, but the disco plaid dude was my favorite so I made them pose by this one!
And, the pony ride. Last year Katie wanted to ride the pony then freaked out at the last minute and wouldn't ride...at least they refunded us! This year, she had quite the time on Chocolate Chip!
Drew rode Domino. He said it was pretty cool. Here's a little clip of the pony-riding:

Looks like everyone had a good time. The disco guy does look pretty cool.

Sounds like you guys had a great day! Talan didn't like the hayride we went on over the weekend either. Maybe its the age! Caitlyn also said "I like that baby but, will she share that sno cone with me?
