A Day in the Country

The kids had the day off school on Monday, so we went with a bunch of friends out to the pumpkin patch at Sweet Berry Farms. It was a beautiful day for being in the country.
We went on a hay ride. We stopped by this giant oak tree to take pictures. (we had a lot of kids with us: 23! Not all could climb trees.)Then we went into the giant Texas Maze. It is in the shape of Texas. The goal is to find all 12 "cities" and punch your card at each destination.
The prize is a soda - which we needed after the hour we spent running around in the corn.

Then we had lunch and fed the farm animals. For dessert we had 100% strawberry popsicles. We ended up getting our pumpkins at the grocery store (they were bigger and much cheaper).
It was a great day and made me want to move out of town even more. Someday...

  1. That looks like so much fun! It's so cold here that it's hard to get motivated to do anything.

    Jake was talking about your moving out to the country theory...... you will have to ask him one day.
