Mother Earth Harvest Fair

On Sunday we took MacKenzie to the Mother Earth Harvest Fair at Spoutwood Farm. I had the honor of portraying Mother Earth herself for the children's Passport Adventure activity, so Daddy had the baby most of the day. They had a lovely day visiting with friends, playing, enjoying the cool, crisp day, and having new adventures!

MacKenzie got to play with Elyse, who is just under a month younger than she is. What a treat! We don't get to see Elyse and her Mommy & Daddy as much as we would like to, because they live two hours away. It's nice that Spoutwood is a halfway point for us!


We also got to spend some time with our friends, the Hudgins'. Sydney and Katie played with MacKenzie a lot on Sunday...and MacKenzie loved every minute of it! They sure were a big help while we were out at dinner after the fair: keeping the baby occupied and making her laugh was greatly appreciated! For some reason, we never get a picture of Katie...she is very elusive, apparently! Here is a picture of Sydney & MacKenzie after their walk.


Daddy took MacKenzie on a ride on a miniature horse cart. It was very cute. I was working, so I didn't get to take a picture...you'll have to take my word on the cute part! It was a small cart, drawn by two miniature horses. Just perfect for little kids! At the end of the day, after all the patrons were gone, the woman who owned the miniature horses asked if we wanted to put the baby on one of the horses' backs...I ran for the camera, and Daddy hoisted her up! The horse was perfectly still, and so was MacKenzie! She just wasn't sure what to do about being up there!


I believe a fun day was had by all. Daddy had a good day hanging out with his Pumpkin, and MacKenzie ALWAYS has fun when she is with her Daddy!

  1. Such sweetness. I will NOT miss MEHF next year. Something for work always comes up, but I'm going to put my foot down.

    I was happy that Elyse got to spend the day with Adam, though. She got a bit of a sunburn, actually!
