Apple Orchard and Pasta

Today we headed to Ya-Ya Farms in Longmont to pick apples. Unfortunately they didn't allow picking for those without an appt or reservation. We found out quickly that they only had a few apples left to pick and didn't really focus on that part. We fed horses and donkeys carrots and then peeked at chickens and chicks. We then got on a hayride and ate a apple cider donut. We looked around the orchard a bit more but there were no more apples on the trees but those eaten by bugs. We hope to book a picking trip for next year when the crop is better. Saya had a great time though. Once we got home we had lunch and Saya went down for a nap. Baba and mommy went grocery shopping and got home to start dinner. We had a nice pasta dinner outside on the deck and then enjoyed a fire while drinking hot chocolate. Saya loved the hot chocolate and could have drank a second cup. We got all cleaned up and ready for bed and Saya decided to play dress up and pulled out all her accessories. She got out headbands as well as baba's shower cap. Quite a sight and a fun night.

Tomorrow we're off to take baba to the airport.

Saya got a bucket of carrots to feed the horses.

Okay we had no idea that horses can be so big. One exhaled on Saya and she was shocked.

So these are working horses but still...

Onto the hayride.

the hay was poking Saya but we put a sweatshirt under her and all was good.
