first time for everything

today the varmints and i did something we've never done before.....

we went to a corn maize!

i'd heard about this maze for a couple of years now, but i didn't know where it was.  but one day a few weeks ago i was just driving around and found it accidentally.  since we're on fall break this sounded like something fun to do.  

there was more than just the maze.  they had a family of goats that were adorable!  the little baby one sucked on our fingers!  it was so cute.  even spencer didn't mind a little bit of goat slobber.

we were given a map to help us through the maze, but to me it was useless!  i had no idea where we were starting so i didn't know where to go.  does that make sense?  for the first few minutes of our trek in the corn, the boys kept stopping to consult their maps. {they were cracking me up!}  each one of us had our own agendas while we were in the maze: 

 spencer was collecting corn that was on the ground.

colby just wanted to figure out the maze.

of course i just wanted to take pictures!  {like this one of a ladybug on a dried up corn husk}

so we had a nice day.  the maize wasn't super exciting, but at least we can say we've done it.  it was relaxing just to be out in the fall weather.
