Black Island Farms

Last week, we went to Black Island Farms with Jacqui, Landon, Holly and Jaxson. There are many activities for the kids to do. There are also lots of places to take cute pictures, so I thought that was great.They have many farm animals there including pigs, cows, sheep, goats, chickens, roosters, peacocks, and llamas. Clayton thought the llamas were pretty cool. He stood next to the llama trying to poke it through the fence with his little fingers. Good thing they werent' spitting!
The next activity were the slides. Normally, they would be lots of fun, but on this morning, they had dew and frost on them, so the kids were getting wet and dirty from the hay. Clayton thought it was fun, but he had a hard time climbing up the ropes to get to the slide. We decided to head over to the corn box. Clayton enjoyed playing in the kernels but they stuck all over his clothes and shoes. He kept trying to take his shoes off! He played on the tires for a few minutes and then we headed over to the hayrides. He was so excited when we got there and he could see the tractors. This was definately his favorite part of the day. We sat in the front of the hay wagon and the driver gave him a little white boo pumpkin.

The tractor took us out pass the cornstalks and over to the carrots and cabbage patches. The driver let the kids taste both vegetables. Then we headed to the pumpkin patch where the kids got to pick their very own "pie' pumpkin. I guess the littler pumpkins are best for making pies. Clayton sang to himself the whole way back to the farm. He was so happy to be on a wagon ride!
