Scholz Farm

Yesterday Michael's family (plus my parents) all got together to celebrate Avery's (Owen's cousin) 9th Birthday. We couldn't have asked for a nicer day. The weather was great and we had so much fun at the farm.
Owen is always happy to see Ga-Ga & Pa!
Jackers was all smiles even though he was supposed to be napping!
The first thing the kids did was play on this giant hill of sawdust with all of these kid toys. Who knew chipped wood could be so much fun!
Owen was really timid at first, but once he warmed up to the idea of playing we had to practically carry him away kicking and screaming.
Michael's Dad is just a big kid! He had so much fun pulling Cooper, Camryn and Avery down the sawdust hill in the lid to a sandbox.
Here is the sandbox. Paige is getting so big she's almost 4 now and isn't she as pretty as a princess?
After playing on the sawdust hill we had lunch and then went into the corn maze. They had it set up like we were walking through the different scenes from Peter Pan. It was really cute for the kids.


Jack finally got to take his nap in the Moby wrap while we walked around in the corn maze.

Samantha was getting a great view while we trekked through the maze.


I love this picture of the cousins (minus - Stevie, Samantha & Jack) because it's so true to life. Camryn cannot keep her hands off Owen. She just LOVES him!


After the corn maze Avery opened his presents and we had dessert. Then it was time to go find the perfect pumpkin.

Off we go in the big red wagon!

Wheelbarrows are good forms of transportation too!

Owen was sure HE could find the perfect pumpkin!

Maybe it's over here!!!

Owen was not happy when it was time to go. Michael ended up finding the pumpkin because Owen would have just walked around for hours and hours. He was SO overdue for his nap that he was just trying to keep himself awake. He did really well considering and it was so much fun spending time with family, celebrating Avery and enjoying the fall festivities.
