Corn Maze Adventures.....

Sunday we all went to Uncle Shuck's Corn Maze. It seemed like just the thing to do on a nice Fall Sunday. I had tried to take the kids the day before, with my friend Kim and her kids, but plans didn't work out because I had forgotten about Big A's Girl Scout meeting. I was really bummed. So, we decided to go on Sunday instead. Pixie was not feeling well at all, and the kids lost interest in the maze about 15 minutes into it. The little ones complained about being tired, and the big ones convinced themselves that we would be lost forever... And we were lost for a long time! :) I finally figured out how to read the map near the end. I definitely don't need to lead the Girl Scout troop on any hikes where only maps and compasses are involved. My sense of direction seems to be way off... Pixie was not much of a help either... after all, she often gets lost just going down the road to the grocery store.... :) I think the kids had a pretty good time all in all though. It was definitely an adventure....

On the way home we stopped at Mellow Mushroom, where we dined on an absolutely terrible pizza. The waitress sucked, too. The whole experience left something to be desired. Actually, I wouldn't say it was that bad. After all we got to spend the day together, making some memories. That in itself makes the trip worth it.

Here are some photos of our day at the maze.....
