Nice Fall Weekend

We had a really nice weekend this past weekend.  It was a beautiful fall weekend so we got to do a lot of things outside.

Saturday we went to a Medieval Faire at Waterloo Park.  It was nice and James has a good time.  There were a lot of games where James earned popsicle sticks that could be remdeemed for trading cards later on.  He loved it!  He got to storm the castle, fire a trebuchet and crossbow, and several other games.  We had lots of good snacks and watched knights fight.





Sunday we got up early and did the Terry Fox Run with the swim team.  James kept saying he was going to do the whole 10k.  When we got there, that changed.  We did do almost a 5k.  He had fun doing that.




After the Terry Fox Run, we went to Birtch Farms to pick apples.  We started going here 3 years ago and love this little farm.  The apples are always great and there is a lot of other things to do for James.  We picked Empires, Courtlands, McIntoshes,and Royal Galas.  James ate 5 apples while we were picking.  He actually picked some apples at the very end.  Several times he had an apple in each hand and was alternating bites. 







We were all really tired at the end of the weekend.  I'm so glad that fall is here and we are able to get out and enjoy the weather.
