Today we went on a field trip!  A field trip that we have been talking about for eons!  Because we never! stop! talking! ever!  If you happen to think that I might be exaggerating, might I suggest you spend a few hours with my dear, sweet child.  She’ll talk yer dang ears off.  We have entered the Why Phase.  I knew it was coming.  I used to make up answers to the Whys when my nephews were small and my long-suffering sister would have to explain to them that I was just kidding, because those short people, they don’t get the sarcasm so much.  My angelic sister put up with two small children and a teenager (me) all at the same time.  She was too nice to tell me to go home.  Of course, she’s my sister, not my mother, so I was probably a little more civil to her, but then there was the Ironing Incident…

I know this is how children learn and all, but does she have to learn quite so much in a single day?  Can’t she spread it out a little?  Say over the course of a week or month?

We had a fun time going on a hayride, exploring the hay maze, tunnel and slide, and buying more pumpkins.  Because we only had like 6 on the front porch and that obviously wasn’t nearly enough.  All the pics can be seen here if you wanna.
