A visit to Northfork Outback in Webberville, MI

Our family of 4 spent a few Saturday's ago in Webberville, MI participating in some fall fun activities!

Northfork Outback is a Horse Farm they transformed into a playland for kids (and dads).

There was a pumpkin patch.

George picked out his very own pumpkin, carried it to me and then threw it at me... ahh, what a sweetie!

There were midget pony rides.  Is that the politically correct term for this horse?  Little pony?

Abby tried out her bucking bronco skills.

And Tommy practiced his lasso'ing 

(I'm city folk, so I'm not sure what that is called ;-))

Both George and Abby LOVED the petting zoo.

Dad?  Not so much.

Good thing we carry LOTS of wipes and anti-bacterial foam..hehe.

There was a very bumpy train ride that made Abby roar with laughter.

And, a wagon ride that didn't make George very happy :(

Growing up, Tommy's cousin Robbie would hold his little brother Joey on his lap with his arms wrapped around him.  Joey would cry to get out and Robbie would just say 'Shhhhh, Shhhhh, Shhhh' and everyone would laugh.  So, when George starts to have a fit, Tommy does the same to him and the memory of Robbie and Joey makes him smile.  That is what Tommy is doing to George in this picture!

George didn't like Daddy too much that day, but Abby sure did...

Abby would do anything for her Daddy... anything!

While we were there, a headless horseman appeared!  They gave Abby a smooth black rock and told her that if she rubbed it the evil spirits would go away.

She rubbed it for a very long time after the headless horseman rode away.

It was a fun day.   

We had beautiful weather and it was a very family friendly place.

Couldn't ask for more!

Until  next post,
