Gramma had a great idea to take the little two boys to the Tree Adventure at Arbor Day Farms in Nebraska City one beautiful day. They had not been there before and had a great time! We had such a fun time watching them explore and learn.

Grayson loved this little wheelbarrow. He pushed Declan around for a while then spent a long time loading and unloading blocks.
This little trip to the Tree Adventure reminded me of the one we did a long time ago when the big guys were little. They all look so little in these pictures and having as much fun then as we did.

Both days then and now were one of the most fun times with my boys and cousins. Two perfect fall days. After the Tree Adventure we enjoyed a little lunch and a piece of pie at the cafe then headed out to Union Orchard to get delicious apple donuts. We do not go to Nebraska City every year now, it has changed so much. It is good to visit every few years or so now.
We have found a new fun pumpkin patch place and fall adventure to enjoy. It is Camp Fontenelle near Nickerson Nebraska. This is a much different place than Nebraska City. It is a farm that offers many fun fall activities. This is our second year going and look forward to next year too.
There is a huge corn maze that again the boys spent over two hours in finding their way around and the spots to get punches on their cards that they can trade in for a prize. Liam took off with Brendan and Laura I never caught up to them again. I found Tristan starting his search for the stamps.
Grayson took a moment to enjoy a sucker one of the people hiding in and around the maze,
Grayson was leading Daddy in and out of the maze.
The next thing was called the "big pillow" which is a huge inflated "pillow" you can jump on. A little like a poof trampoline. The boys big and small spent over an hour jumping. It was really fun!

Worn out and ready to go.
After the jumping pillow they all went to the laser tag corn maze. Another fun hour. Grayson was able to play this year and was very proud of himself. (no pictures I did not go to that part)
After all the jumping and corn maze hunting and corn maze laser tag we stopped for a caramel apple snack. A perfect snack for the beautiful day.
The best was waiting for the three big boys to end our fun day. Tristan, Colin and Liam got to ride the zip line again this year and had a blast!
