Lyon Family Farm, TN -- 2011

Yesterday we decided to take the kids to Lyon Family Farms.  Most people around here go to Tate Farm.  I actually have never been to Tate Farm.  Both Hunter and Emilee have been through school field trips, but the rest of us have not.  Last year was the first time we went to Lyon Farm and we liked it so much, we went back this year.  Now if you ask Emilee, she will say she likes Lyon farms so much better, Hunter on the other hand says he likes Tate.  I really don't know which is better, but we sure did have a good time at Lyons and really that is all that matters.
They didn't have this last year, but it was seriously funny.  Emilee could get herself going and then flop right in the middle.  They all had a race with Jeremy as well and the winner, EMILEE!!
So much to see and do.  I always am a sucker for a corn maze.  Hunter is hilarious 'cause he doesn't have the desire to get out of the maze, but to try and get lost as best as he can.  I would say, Hunter this way and he knew that it was, but he would say, "no mommy, this way, 'cause that is the way out over there".  Silly boy.  It was very difficult to get him out, and in the end, we came out of the entrance the way we came in.

Ah, the animal area.  Megan loves animals.  She could have stayed in here all day.  There was a kitten you could take home.  She tried hard to persuade me, but no, like that will happen.  She is lucky to have the dog we have.  I did like the pigs and for the three little pigs, there were three little houses.  One made out of straw, one made out of sticks, and one made out of bricks.  Totally cute, I just hope the big bad wolf doesn't need a cup of sugar.
 And of course to end our time at the farm was a hayride to the pumpkin patch to find the perfect pumpkin.  Hunter wanted a green one.  He went and found the biggest green one he could find.  He says he wants it to be the Green Goblin.  Emilee wanted a fat orange one and Megan was trying to find the perfect small round one.
What a fun day!
