Fall is in the Air

It’s that time of year when the sun sets earlier, the leaves change a pretty color, and you have to bundle up a little more on the farm! Here’s a fun little collection of photos from my recent fall fun around the farm.

Don’t you just want to jump in a great big pile of leaves and sip hot chocolate now? (well in my case just burrow under my favorite warm blanket!) Ammo the Dachshund

Picking Pumpkins

Over the weekend mom and dad took me to pick out my Halloweenie pumpkins.

And oh boy where there pumpkins galore to choose from!

But not to worry, this nose is very experienced at picking out the very best carving pumpkins!

Just look at these beauties I sniffed out! I can’t wait to get to carving them, all I have to do is decide what to carve. Any suggestions?

And if you didn’t know, I’m also pretty awesome at carving pumpkins too, just like these sweet pumpkins from a few years back.Ammo the Dachshund

It’s Pumpkin Time

Do you know what time it is? If you guessed pumpkin time, then you would be correct! And these fine pumpkins you see – well I got to pick out all of them!

Mom and Dad took me Hurricane Hill Farm to pick out my pumpkins, and I was so excited I couldn’t help but let out a yell.

Last year I did the corn maze, but this year it was all about the pumpkins.

There were so many pumpkins to choose from I really didn’t know where to start.

Slowly I began to load up my wagon with all my favorites.

And I might have licked a few, you know, just to make sure I was picking the tastiest ones.

At the end of the day I came home with a wheelbarrow full of the very best pumpkins.

Do you like the pumpkins I picked? Any other pups out there know of some other dog friendly pumpkin patches? Do tell! Tomorrow I’ll share what I carved into my pumpkins!

 

Corn Navigation

This fall I got to try something I’ve never done before! Visit a Corn Maze!

I will get to the maze part in a second, but first let me tell you about all the new friends I made!

Mom and Dad said these were goats. I don’t really care what they are, but the fact that they can climb something like this…..

..”The Goat Walk”…..makes them pretty awesome in my book!

This one gave me the stink eye….I’m not gonna lie…..I thought I might die.

Three against one….I wasn’t about to fight those odds.

After getting another death stare from this guy, I decided maybe it was time to head into the maze!

The corn maze looked challenging, but I was up for the task! Mom and Dad said that I could navigate the entire thing myself….and that they would follow ME!

There were a few momments that I had to ponder which route to take.

And honestly, I did have to check the map once or twice.

And for a second there I thought about maybe taking a short cut.

But in the end I made it over the foot bridge…..

…and I could see the end in sight!

I made it to the exit just as it was getting dark! And would you believe…..I only made ONE wrong turn, and navigated the maze in half the normal time!

I can’t wait to conquer next year’s corn maze!!

Happy Fall from me to you!
