Saturday Corn Maze


So I am notorious for being busy around here, and last Saturday was one of those days were both Brad and I just went from one thing to another without a chance to even catch our breath. I tried to explain to Brad that this happened because there are only so many days that he is not studying so I try to take full advantage of them. In the morning Brad was speaking at a Republican sponsored Pro Life conference (as President of the Pro Life interest group at MCW). And I ran a 5K run/walk sponsored by the Relief Society. From that we took a trip to the Temple (and for anyone going down there the construction is still bad). Being late because of the construction we headed strait for the corn maze with the Kagies and didn't get there till right before it got dark. With enough light to explore the pumpkin patch, barn and farm animals it was pitch black when we started the corn maze. We were lucky enough that they had some flashlights we could borrow. This was the first corn maze Brad and I had done, we have been to them before and just played around and we have been to many haunted corn mazes, but this time we actually did the maze. It was pretty fun, but I found myself being scared that people would jump out at me (too many haunted mazes I guess). We finished off the day with watching our favorite Cougars play.

We found some pretty crazy looking pumpkins (okay squash)

There was also these crazy turkeys that were posing for us

This is when we started (we came out an hour and a half later)

I'm totally with you on the "scared people will jump out at you at the corn maze" thing. We've been to a few haunted corn mazes-- Two words: CHAIN SAW.
Those guys give me serious nightmares.

And in response to your comment on my blog---sure, I'll send David right over. "Red rover, red rover, send David right over.

I LOVE that rocking chair!! That is so cool...you guys look tiny in that thing!

I am totally the same way about Saturdays. I plan at least 2 or 3 activities because we finally can! Someday we won't have this studying thing to deal with!

Wow, that is a pretty jammed packed Saturday!! Our Saturdays usually consists of ALL DAY football. (With homework mixed in) But then again I am married to Shad!
Love corn mazes, so fun. I don't think we'll make it to one this time around. And Brrrr... it looks pretty cold there.

We miss you guys... come play with us. Or maybe come watch a BYU game?? Its not the same without you!
