Fall Festival at Cox Farms

We made our annual trip to Cox Farms this weekend - and it's neat to see how much the girls have grown, year by year. Our first year was when Emma was only 14 months old - she didn't get much out of it. Last year, the kids were terrified by the hayride (aliens jump out at you, and the tractor takes you through the "Barn of Doom") but this year Emma thought it was just a little scary and very silly, and she wanted to go on most of the slides by herself.

The girls have been officially horse crazy for a few months now. Here they are with their ponies, Shorty and Pie:
