Lots of fun had this weekend during a trip to Fifer’s Orchard near Dover, DE. Lucky us for showing up during a Fall Festival weekend! Even though there were lots of activities geared toward little ones, we were still entertained for hours.
Fifer’s offers loads of jolly times. Including a corn maze. This year’s theme: Tractor to Table. Check out the map of the maze below! Crazy, right? How the heck do they do that??
I loved looking at the cool pumpkins. This is the type of thing that Martha loves. If I hadn’t flown in…you better believe I would be going home with some of these squatty green guys and warty lovelies. Yes, that’s right, I have no idea what they are actually called.
And when we weren’t playing outside, we were hanging in the fruit stand. Sipping apple cider slushies {crazy delicious} and filling mix and match bags with the prettiest apples I’ve seen this season.
And what is it about orchards, corn mazes and tricycle races? I don’t know why they go hand in hand, but they do.
Oh, yeah. The best part? Well…besides spending an afternoon with some of my BFF’s?
The zip line.
Obviously. Weight limit cuts off at 150 lbs…so that meant I had all the fun while the boys stood on the sidelines crazy jelly. Did the children see my underoos? There’s a good chance. But come, on. It’s a zip line through bales of hay.
All in all…it’s one of the best days I’ve had this fall. Thanks Fifer’s. You rock.

PS…What did we do with all the produce we lugged home? Caramel apples, apple pie, pumpkin carving, pumpkin seeds, apples and peanut butter, and hot apple cider. I’m pretty sure I’ve gained 20 lbs this weekend. So worth it.
