Blakes Big Apple
Blakes comes highly recommended by our family: a great apple orchard/pumpkin patch/cider mill/family-fun-place extraordinaire.
Coco started the day off with a little pony ride. The girl has absolutely no fear - I admire her.

She hopped on a fake pony too.

Then we visited all the barnyard animals.
She loved climbing with Daddy.


...and has always dreamed of driving a train.


We have no pictures of the 'haunted barn' we took her through. She dug her head into my shoulder and clung like a monkey virtually the whole time. I thought she was terrified... after all I was terrified. But all she said after coming out was "Too loud, Mama...................that's fun!" - takes after her father.
We had lunch, then grabbed a hayride to the orchards.

Where Chloe picked her first apple right off the tree. She was so proud.




It was an awesome time.

Painting
I've started doing a bit of homeschooling with Coco....based on the alphabet. One of our activities for the letter "A" was to make some pretty apple stamp paintings. 
She loves doing any kind of art project. She'll sit and color or paint for hours a day... reminds me of myself as a child. She has been particularly proud of her new ability to draw circles and will do it over and over and over again.
