Family Fun

We loaded up and went down south last Saturday to a pumpkin patch/farm. We had heard about it from several people and thought we would check it out.

The first thing we did was take a hay ride around the grounds.

They told us about all the different things they grow on the farm and the history of the farm. One of the things being, a couple of fields of sunflowers. They said we actually missed it by a few weeks when they where all in full bloom.

AEH and I picked a few before we left and brought them home and put them in a vase.

They had a Sudan grass maze. The kids loved running through this but they mostly liked trying to hide from us.

They always love feeding goats.

EMH and I checking out the other animals.



They had what they called, sand mountain. It was a big pile of sand that had some big ropes hanging down over it for you to swing from. AEH loved this!

SLH even decided to give it a try.

This was one of EMH's favorite things. It was a hay maze for preschoolers. He wouldn't do it by himself at first but he got his confidence up and got the hang of it.



This was a big black tunnel slide and it was pretty steep. SLH put EMH on it by himself the first time and I don't think that went over too good. By SLH's reaction and snicker, I think it was a little rough. Probably glad I didn't see it. So needless to say SLH went down with him the rest of the time. AEH went down this a lot with some kids that she met.

This tunnel was in the preschool area and was more EMH's style. It didn't have a slope. He went through this several times.


Another favorite! Driving a pretend tractor! We had trouble getting him off of this when it was time to move on to something else.

We each got to pick out a pumpkin to take home. They had a large hay bale maze behind the pumpkins and they were more interested in that than picking out a pumpkin.

Posing with the pig!

EMH giving the pig a kiss!

When we told them it was time to go, EMH took off down the hill. He did not want to go!
This is SLH bringing him back. Notice EMH has different clothes on. He wet through his other ones. They were having so much fun that we never stopped to change his diaper.

This was the scene in the back seat, not long after we got on the road to head home. They loved it and were worn out! We will definitely have to try to go back next year!
