Hill Ridge Farms

There are so many fun places to explore here. One of Sead's coworkers told us about Hill Ridge Farms, so we drove up to Youngsville to check it out on Sunday.



Jumping Pillow

Bounce House!

Emma turned 15 months this day (Oct 30).







The girls had a great time feeding this horse.



An enormous slide!

The view from the way up to the slide





Duck Racing





On the train

Ella's so much more outgoing than she was when she was last year. She joins other kids easily now.



Hay Tunnel



Bunnyville! So cute!







On the Hayride









 The hayride makes a stop in the pumpkin field where this giant spider sits. :-)

Ella was pretty much done at this point, but did manage to pick a couple of pumkins. :-)

Kooky Spooky Halloween Party at Marbles Kids Museum

We took the girls to the Marbles Kids Museum Halloween Party Saturday evening in Raleigh. The museum is amazing! It's even better than the Children's Discovery Museum in San Jose.

Arriving at the party









Emma loved the toddler section!



Playing in the veterinarian area



Always a favorite, the ambulance

Stables

We think Emma saw Ella doing check-ups on the animals in the vet area and was mimicking the action with the stable animals. :-)

She's driving already!



Cool little doll tree house




Emma in the kitchen!

Grocery shopping

Giving a dance performance on the little stage

Decorating and eating cookies!

In the submarine


Hmmm... maybe it's time to head home soon

Pirate Ship!!!



Emma brought some cheese aboard.

Back in the submarine performing lab experiments

This board has lots of buttons that make all kinds of submarine sounds within the submarine area.





Jelly worms!
