CORNBELLY's

We made it to Cornbelly's this year and boy are we glad! Cornbelly's is a super family fun place that's open during the month of October. We spent 3 hours there in freezing (literally) temperatures! It was that fun!













The kids had fun on the slide area. Here is a video that Christopher took of Gavin while going down a slide. He ends up plowing right into Gavin's butt!

Hay tunnels.

Pedal Kart racing.


The kids had a lot of fun in the "Destruction Zone". This is where they used compressed air cannons to blow pumpkins and corn at cars and trucks. Yeah, a little boys dream come true.


Gavin got called up to participate during the pig races. He was to favor the red pig...he lost.

The kids had a mini corn maze with the "Corn Snake". I love Reese's face. She was getting pretty cold at this point.

Caden had fun in the giant pile of corn and made a "corn angel" for us.



Can you tell they wanted to have their picture taken at every one of these?

After we warmed up by the fire and got some kettle corn popcorn and hot chocolate, we headed in to the 12 acre corn maze. We chose to do the 30 minute route and it took us about that much time to finish. They also had a haunted corn maze, but we chose not to do that one this year with the kids.


The kids were bouncing on some bounce castles when Reese heard her Little Mermaid song come on. She ran up to the stage, put on a princess outfit and started to dance her little heart out. It was the cutest thing.



She didn't have a care in the world on stage and didn't mind the crowd. Maybe we need to sign her back up for dance classes.

Then her brothers came in with swords and fought and that was that.

Reese in Cinderella's pumpkin carriage.


I love Gavin in this picture. Reese wanted a picture inside the carriage with a driver. We forced Gavin up and he wasn't happy about it. lol

About this time the kids were getting pretty cranky and wanted to leave (we hadn't planned to be there so long and weren't prepared for such cold).

This place was pretty much the coolest "pumpkin patch" we've ever been to. It's gonna be hard to find something this cool when we get back to Texas.




On our way out, the kids noticed a whole other side to Cornbelly's and suddenly put aside their crankiness for another half hour of fun. But my camera battery died. Hay rides, cow train rides and pillow bounces... WE LOVE YOU CORNBELLY!

Ok this place looks AMAZING!! Utah has some FUN places!! Was that a roller slide? They had those in Okinawa and the kids LOVED them. However the ones over there were a bit more scarey looking. I was always afraid their fingers were going to get stuck between the rollers!!

we went there for Noah's field trip. I'm thinking it would be more fun with just my two kids and not hundreds of kindergartners. but it really was a neat place.
