Ropp Road Roundup - Part 2!

On the same day that we went to Ropp Cheese Farm, we went down the road (they are both located on Ropp Road, hence the name of the round-up!) to Radar Family Farms. Like I said in the last post, we had heard that they had changed it since we had last been out, but we didn't really know what to expect. Part of why we hadn't gone back out was that when we last went out in 2008, it was free, but now they charged admission. Well, once we got there, I understood why they charged admission. Since we were last there, they have added a much larger pumpkin patch, and a retail store, and lots of things for the kids to climb on/jump on/slide on, etc.


Here are some of the pictures from the rest of our day:



A quick photo before we went in



Flower doing some practice roping



Here is what she is was trying to rope. Jelly Bean is pointing them out to her.



Jelly Bean was slightly more successful.



Then the two of them tried it together to see if that helped. It didn't, but I had to take a picture of them cooperating. :)



The huge tube slide



My kids were too big for this ride, but I thought it was so cute that I took a picture of it. The corn bins are in the background.



Flower waiting at the top of the tube slide.



The kids spent the longest time in the corn bins. Here is Flower in one.



Super being buried in the corn.



The girls together again in the corn bin.



Super jumping on the hay bales.



Flower at the top of the hay castle.



I love this picture. Flower mid-jump on the jumping pillow.



And Super mid-jump.

We had a good day at both Ropp Farm and Radar Farm. We are looking forward to next year's Ropp Road Round-up. Maybe we will even try the corn maze next year!
