This past Monday Ms. Fabulous, Henry and I with her class visited a local farm that had a pumpkin patch set up and it was fun!

We all got to take a haystack ride (a first for all of us), through the acres of strawberries, tomatoes and the best part, the farm animals, including feeding hay to the horses and pony’s and even petting the goats. I learned an interesting tidbit of these species of goat called the fainting goat; they were “manipulated” through various means to react to fear by fainting, so farmers would put a few of them together with sheep, and if a wolf attacked this of course scared the goat faintless, letting the sheep get away unscathed. Of course at first glance it does cruel to raise animals for the sole purpose for the survival of another breed, but that is an argument for another day.

The icing on the cake of course to the kids was getting to pick their very own pumpkins, which my silly Henry would not leave outside, hopefully next week I’ll be able to find some superhero theme carving sets.

The foliage has been losing its freshness through the month of August, and here and there a yellow leaf shows itself like the first gray hair amidst the locks of a beauty who has seen one season too many.

Mr. H officially had his first game today and it went quite well, with #86 playing defense and actually tackling both times he was in, we would have loved to see more of him in the game, but for the time he was in, he enjoyed every minute of it and made some great plays and they won 28 - 6.

Ms. Fabulous cheered for the flag football team which was really exciting, given that the home team had been leading up to the final quarter when the visitors made a touchdown, and unlike professional football with a field goal, convert (the equivalent of a 2 point after a TD, I promise that is as far as my football knowledge goes lol) for an extra point, now with the home team down by 3 with 2 seconds on the clock, the home team came through and scored!
