Black Island Farms

Last week we went to Black Island Farms.. We went with my whole side of the family! It turned out to be so much fun.. We thought it was going to be freezing with the weather lately, but it turned out to be warm and all of the kids loved it.. We went on a hay ride to go pick out pumpkins for all of the kids..
 
 
 
 Payson loved it he was at first obsessed with the big tractor and kept saying "vroom vroom" he is such a boy!
 
 
Then we stopped and got to pick out pumpkins.. He was amazed at all of the pumpkins and kept saying "ball" to all of the pumpkins.. But after looking around a little bit he finally found the pumpkin he wanted! It was of course one he could lift because he has to do everything on his own and can never have help!:)

He finally found the one he wanted!

He would not let go of that pumpkin
 
Happy Boy!!

 
 After the hay ride we went and looked at all of the animals.. Payson would run from gate to gate to see all of the animals.. He was in love! He felt like he was at Grandpa Rogers farm!
 

We were all amazed at how big this pig was

All the kids admiring the animals
 
 All of the little ones that are Paysons age were obsessed with each other the entire time! They had to always hold each others hands and be by each other! It was the cutest thing!

Then after the animals and holding hand session we went and found the tire swings.. All of the kids loved the swings.. The only bad part is for Payson it was hard to hold on cause he had never ridden it before but he still loved it!
 


 
After the swings we went on the slides.. Payson was not a fan of the slides at all.. Ever since being back home he has basically been scared of everything.. I dunno why because in the Philippines he loves the slides and playgrounds... But he was not having it here.. Jordyn took him down once and he screamed the whole time, and then I took him down and he screamed the whole time so I figured we would stop torturing him and not take him down the slide again!
 
Telling Jord "NO NO"

Still fighting her

Screaming bloody murder

Holding on for dear life!!

Mad that I am making him go again

Harder to get on the slide then it looks

 
This next picture is my favorite.. It started getting pretty cold so I got Paysons coat and beanie out for the first time since being here and he just looked so stinking cute!! He was like a big chubby teddy bear!
 
Cutest little thing ever!!
After the slides we went to the animal train.. Now I thought Payson would love this!! But I thought wrong he screamed from the second he got on it to the second he got off.. And Jordyn was the lucky one that got to take him!!:)
 



HAHAHA poor kid
After we tortured him on the animal train we went and played in corn kernels.. At first he was a little stand offish and didn't want to get in and play but once he did he loved it and didn't want to get out.. It was like a sandbox full of corn kernels!!
 


 
The very last thing we did was the corn maze.. I didn't get any pictures of that because by that time I think my hands were frozen! I guess that's what happens when you come from 90 degree weather to 40 or lower haha.. But all in all it was way fun and all the kids and adults loved it!! It might even become a yearly family tradition!:)
