More Disney Fun!

In taking advantage of our annual passes...we headed back up to Disneyland for a day of Disney fun!
 We started the day with a visit to Minnie's house...Sloane's favorite!

 This time we went next door to meet Mickey for the first time!
 Sloane was very excited to meet Mickey!

 Sloane's first visit to the haunted mansion...all decked out for the Nightmare Before Christmas!

 Sloane also got to ride Autopia for the first time...and thought it was soooooo fun driving the car with Daddy!
 Her face says it all!


 We finished the day in fantasyland on Dumbo and the Teacups.
 Sloane loved spinning the teacup...Mommy not so much!

She didn't even move when we transferred her from the car...sweet Disney dreams...

It's the Great Pumpkin Sloanie Bear!

Despite the 100+ degree weather...we decided to head up to the country with the Santamarias for some good ol'fashioned pumpkin patch fun!  Sloane loved the hayride and pumpkins...but the pony ride was her favorite by far!!!

 All set for a hayride!


 Hayride fun with Colin



 Sloane loved petting all the animals...




 ...especially the pigs!
 Her favorite, though, was the pony ride!  She absolutely loved it and couldn't stop talking about it!  "More, more pony rides!!"







She was very excited to find the perfect pumpkin!

Apple Picking

In an attempt to summon fall...we took Sloane apple and pear picking at Starr Organic Orchards in Julian.  She loved searching for the fruit and learning how to pluck it from the tree.  She especially loved watching Mommy and Daddy use the apple picker...but the VERY best part was...getting to eat all the yummy apples and pears!  Sloane jumped at the opportunity to sample the fruit right off of the tree!

 Sampling the delicious pears!

 What's apple picking without a ride in a little red wagon?


Great day in the country!
