Cox Farms Fall Festival

Today we got to visit Cox Farms for the annual Fall Festival! This farm is really close to us, and we drive by it every time we go pretty much anywhere. We have seen the goats and llamas on the property, and the kids have been wanting to visit it all year! We have been anxiously waiting for it to open, and then we learned they would open just in time for their annual Fall Festival, and we finally got to go!

There was SO much to do, and the kids had an absolute blast. I took the opportunity to bring out their matching Fall outfits, which was perfect for the pumpkin patch portion of the festival. I'm glad I got a photo at the start of the fun, because there were hay bales to climb, slides to slide down, tractors to explore, goats to pet...  a whole bunch of kid fun!

There was a fun corn maze that we got to walk through, and the kids were equally as excited about the actual corn growing as they were the fun things we found along the way. We ended up having really great weather, and we were thankful for the cloud cover to keep things cool for us.

There were also a ton of really fun {and tall!} slides. Eli had zero interest in going down the really tall ones {though he did try a few of the smaller ones}, but Maddie and Aiden were all for it! I was so proud of Maddie Grace...she had no fear and had a blast! Aiden went down one of the really tall ones solo, then decided he preferred riding with Daddy. And he loved every minute :)

There were several farm animals, and we got to pet the goats! Again, Eli was not interested, Maddie LOVED it, and Aiden pet one and was done haha. But they got to see the goats and llama that we have only driven by until today, so hopefully the mystery has been satisfied. There were a TON of tractors that the kids could climb on, and Eli found his favorite part of the festival!

And no farm fall festival would be complete without a tractor-pulled hay ride! There were a lot of fun surprises along the ride, from dinosaurs to horses. We even got to see a friend from CBC, who is working at the Farm as an actor!

We had SO much fun today as a family, and we are so thankful for the chance to explore the Cox Farms Fall Festival! We look forward to visiting again next year!
