Dewberry Farms

Last Sunday, October 30th, Nick & I took the kids to Dewberry Farms. It's in Brookshire, TX which is about a 45 minute drive from our house. There are lots & lots of fun things for the whole family to enjoy!

Upon arriving, the first thing we did was walk through the barn & look at all the animals! I'm sure you know who wanted to do this first!!!!

Then we went to the duck pond. They swam right up to us!

I like his speckled head.

This is Serengeti. He is Addy's class pet at school. It was Addy's turn to bring Serengeti home for the weekend & so he went to Dewberry Farms with us. He had lots of fun!

Addy as the bus driver is checking on all of her students! & Alex will probably really hang out the window like this if he ever rides on a school bus!

About this time, Britany, Keith & Clay arrived & we walked out to the corn maze & navigated our way through it. (It wasn't very hard, btw)

Alex & Clay discussing which way to go, lol!

The drought (or maybe animals) seemed to have done some damage to the corn :(

Next we let the kids play in the flower patch. Sadly, a lot of the flowers were dead because of our horrible dry summer.

Alex picked a flower for Serengeti.

After the flower patch, we walked over to the pumpkin patch.

I tried to get a picture of both the kids (& Serengeti), but they wouldn't sit still long enough!

At this point, both Nick & I were both pretty disappointed in Dewberry Farms. We had never been before & we were expecting a lot more. Alex really wanted to slide & play, so we walked over to the play area & our thoughts about Dewberry Farms changed! There are a ton of outdoor toys for the kids to play on that were a lot of fun.
