aMAZEing

Mikey and Roger have been obsessed with mazes. They do them, they talk about them, they make up stories about them, everything around them seems to be incorporated with this "maze theme".

With it being Autumn, I decided that I had better take them to a corn maze while I still could. One afternoon that Todd got off work early, we went off to a corn maze.

It was a chilly day, the wind did not help matters, but we were not going to let that stop us.

The boys started off with a tractor train pull. the boys enjoyed it, I'm not too sure about Grant though.Then we went off through the corn maze. The farm's theme was Egyptian artifacts. We got into the field and told Mikey and Roger they could just run ahead as long as they stayed together and kept William with them. Surprisingly enough, we never lost them.

Mikey thought the maze was a-maze-ing!! (Cheesy, I know) He kept on saying stuff like, "Help Mikey find his way back to the barn", or "Mom! It's like we're the little people on the paper going through the maze"

We found the "King Tut" artifact in the middle
Apparently it was hilarious

As we spent more and more time in the maze, I wasn't sure we were going to find our way back. Everything looked the same. Just as I felt like throwing in the towel, we found it, The End!
The boys ran out and were so excited. Then something exited my mouth before I could stop it. I asked the boys if they wanted to run through the maze again. Of course they did. In the moment my thought was that we had come all that way to go through the maze, so why not let them enjoy it longer?
They loved it again and were much quicker in getting through it the second time around. Just as we were exiting the maze, the rain came down - hard and fast.

We ran to the barn. There were things to do there, and since no one else was foolish enough to go out in the cold weather, we had the place to ourselves.
The boys loved playing in the corn.
Not a bad idea if you ask me.
Overall, very tiring, very cold, very worth it.
