Fall Fun 2013

Under the beautiful trees at Riley's Farm in Oak Glen.
Our little family of three set off for a few local adventures to enjoy the fun and beauty of fall.  As Lena gets older it has been more and more fun to watch her discover the world and all that is in it.

Oak Glen and Riley's Farm
We invited my parents to come along to the mountains in Oak Glen where there are a ton of apple orchards.  We stopped at Snowline Orchards for hot homemade cider mini donuts and to sample 16 kinds of apples and three kinds of apple cider.  Delicious!  Afterwards we headed down the street to Riley's Farm where I had preordered our lunch of chicken pot pie, Sally Lunn bread, and a 5 lb crumb top apple pie.  We at our lunch on a rustic picnic table under the most beautiful trees with golden fall leaves.  We were able to walk the property and see the pumpkin fields, farm animals, and various historical buildings.  It was such a relaxing and fun outing except that Lena got car sick and threw up about four times throughout the day.  Good thing I packed lots of changes of clothes!
