Today, we went to Maxwell's Pumpkin Farm with the Girl Scouts. Lilliana LOVES the Girl Scouts. She already knows the Girl Scout Promise! First, we fed the rabbits. They were very hungry. So hungry, in fact, they fought over the lettuce! Then we tried to feed the goats, but they were stuffed!
Lilliana met up with one of her Girl Scout friends and they pretty much stayed together throughout the day.
Then we all met up to have a snack. Our troop leader made Jack-o-lantern cupcakes for all to enjoy. Then we were off to conquer the Pumpkin Farm together! Here is the troop together. In hindsight, we should have pointed the camera the other way because the port-o-potties are not very autumn-festive...

Lilliana and the girls on the Jumping Pillow |
Oh to be a kid again. The girls were having a blast with each other. After the Jumping Pillow, we went through the Obstacle Course that was situated within a corn maze, TWICE! Then we went to the slides inside the dirt mountain. We slid down on burlap gunny sacks for a fast slide down. I swear I got my workout going up that mountain so many times.

Helping one another is what Girl Scouts is all about! |

We made it TWICE! That obstacle course was FUN! |
I am so thankful for the Girl Scouts. When I was a little girl, I wanted to be a Girl Scout but for some reason it just wasn't in the budget. Which is a real testament to how poor we must have been because the Girl Scouts is not that expensive. But I am glad I get to share these experiences with Lilliana. She is an only child at home, but she has a band of sisters in this little group.
