Corn Maze Fun

This year we had the opportunity to go to a corn maze on home-school day at the local corn maze. We invited some friends to join us and had a blast walking the maze.

The weather that day was crazy. It was the coldest day this fall and the wind went wild. That didn't stop us one bit.

At the beginning you had some options to choose from in the forms of quizzes to help lead you through the maze. Meagan and her good friend Emma decided to go out on their own and the rest of us went a different route. For our clues, to help us through, we chose movie trivia. Every time you came to a corn cob with a number on it you would go to that question and it would tell you which way to go. So either you chose wisely or you were lead astray.

For example: Finish the lyrics from The Wizard of Oz's "Somewhere over the rainbow": Where trouble melts like.......?

A. lemon drops (turn left)

B. snow (turn right)

C. rain (walk backwards to the beginning)

Since Meagan and Emma went off together Jacob came with us and the little ones. Here he is holding Cheyenne's hand walking with her. The two of them were talking (well mostly Jacob) but Cheyenne was agreeing like she knew exactly what he was saying. It really was the cutest thing ever and he did it all on his own.

I really do love this boy. He can make anyone feel like they are the greatest thing in the world. He has such compassion in him.

Here is the half way point bridge. You can go up and look around and see all of the maze.

We also got to go on a hay ride to the pumpkin patch.

They had a ton of pumpkins to choose from. You went out and picked the one you wanted and brought it to the driver and he would write how much it was on the bottom of it. Well, he was so smitten by Cheyenne, he gave her one for free.

All in all we really had a blast. I know Meagan was so happy to have a friend come along. I was too.
