Dewberry Farm

Travis, Justin, and I took a trip to Brookshire to visit Dewberry Farm yesterday. It is a pumpkin patch and Christmas tree farm basically. But it has taken that to the extreme! It has a corn maze and animals to feed, and play areas with rope swings and roller slides and go carts. It was pretty fun for all the kids. Justin did really well too. We went with a home school group, so we went on a day that is set aside for school groups. It was crazy, but really not too bad. The groups had to start leaving before we did, so the last half hour or so we had the place pretty much to ourselves. Travis wanted to stay forever! Or at least not go home right then. I think we might have to go back. This was definitely the way to go since we didn't have to pay extra for any of the extra activities. Travis loved driving the go carts, and he even got fairly good at it.


It takes some serious concentration to drive one of these go carts!


You have to brake HARD!

The pumpkin patch was pretty bare this time of year. They had some big rains that caused a lot of the pumpkins to rot in the fields. We even had Farmer Dewberry driving our hay ride and he showed us all about the flowers that turn into pumpkins and which are the varieties for jack-o-lanterns and for pie!

We made it through the corn maze!
