Pumpkin & Corn Maze Time!

Like I said October is a busy month for us. Every Saturday will be filled with events. This past Saturday we headed off to the Pumpkin Patch.

We're pretty lucky to have many to choose from around here. We really enjoyed the one we went to last year because of their amazing corn maze. Well we had to get Hubby and Uncle John out of bed...and off we went!
First we checked out the fun, crazy and spooky displays.


Uncle John said this guy looks just like Kenny, so he had to take a pic by him!


Katie, Uncle John, Tina and Marci

Then off to the corn maze! The girls wanted to hold the maps and lead the way.

Now this maze is no ordinary maze. It's in the Guinness Book of Records for being 43 acres! Last year we lost Kenny and Uncle John. This year Kenny and Mateo VENTURED out on their own. Hubby also ditched us! The rest of us were left to Uncle John's guidance. We were lost for a good 20 minutes. The little girls were tired, thirsty and had to use the bathroom. After unsuccessfully trying to get the girls to squat in the field we started calling out for help!
I got Hubby on the phone and thanked him for ditching us and told him to get us out of here! We finally found him and said, "find the quickest way out"! Kenny and Mateo had already hit the 3 checkpoints and found us! We finally got out of the maze! They really made it harder this year.
After checking out the port-a-potties we said, "time to get our pumpkins and get out of here"! Of course we had to hydrate everyone! Thank goodness for slushies!
