Black Island Farms

Yesterday I went to Black Island Farms with a very fun group of ladies and some of their children. What a fun place for children and adults! We spent the majority of the day, everyone had a great time, almost no tears, lots of great memories and laughs!
Here is April teaching all of us how to "rope a cattle" (I have a video that I didn't post . . . . .)

Neve liked it! (for a minute)

We got there close to when it opened and pretty much had the place to ourselves for awhile (excellent middle child choosing!) This slide was a big hit and we were all surprised at how fast you got going!
Lisa, April and me racing. Blow it up and look at my face (and Aprils hands....) I honestly thought I was going to crash into the hay and then I was worried I was going to take out the entire slide, but it was super fun!




Pig Racing! I have never seen this before and LOVED it! Little pigs are SO CUTE (sorry Lisa)

Playing in the corn - Where's Neve?

My very first corn maze! Pretty fun and I was very glad it wasn't night and "things" weren't coming out of the corn . . . . . not my idea of fun . . . . .
I love this picture of everyone studying the map. If we don't know where we are, how will the map help? (I thought to myself) but these ladies are champions of the corn maze and we found our way out!
Hay Ride (minus the Hay which I found super strange) with some of the cutest kids ever

Picking out pumpkins (Hey! That girl doesn't have any shoes on!)
Showing off the fantastic pumpkins they selected

I wanted to show how big and steep this slide was because apparently I found it kind of scary . . . . . . . .
Look at that face! When I got to the bottom strangers were entertained by it and I swear I didn't think the slide was that scary! Oh well another great Halloween memory (like the attempted back flip in Vegas!)

I recommend this place to everyone! My post is super long and doesn't even come close to showing everything we did. Great prices, tons to do, and I look forward to doing it again!

Im soo glad you got a picture of that slide because none of us did and we were sad. I still cant believe what a retard I look like. Glad you discovered this place.

Seriously you found a gem!! A place the adults had almost as much fun as the kids. Or was it just good company? Add this to the yearly traditions we do!!

That pumpkin patch puts ours to shame! Oh well! We are super excited you are coming and we get to continue the tradition! Looks like a blast! We'll try to live up to it!
