Corn, corn, and more corn

No... I'm not talking about the corny jokes that I make... I'm talking about the fact that Jer and I took the kids to the Thanksgiving Point Cornbelly Maze on Saturday.  It was a blast... of course the maze itself was a little too frustrating to an almost two year old and a mom with a double stroller, but that wasn't the only thing there.  They had several play areas including a jumping pillow, bike races, "gold" digging, a dress up area, and our personal favorite... the cornbox (you know... kind of like a sandbox but with corn instead of sand). Here are my favorite of the gazillion picture that we took... and it goes against everything I believe to have pictures of me on my blog... but I have to do it sometimes right?

Jer and Ada on one of the three large slides, they're built on bales of straw.

Ada in the dress up area.  They have a princess story time but we missed it.

Not ideal lighting but the only family picture that we took.

My favorite people ever!And yes this the cornbox.

Tickling Ada's toes.

If you look... that's a powder from the corn... When we all got out everyone was just covered in it.

Choo choo all aboard!

Ada driving the train "to California".

Into the maze...

Yes, she's riding an armadillo... I tried getting her to say it, but I'm not quite sure what she actually ended up saying.

This is the jumping pillow...

This was the bike race... check out the neat bikes, and just so you know they are dang hard to turn!

Emma had boy/girl issues too. It is so funny! She wanted to be daddy when she grew up. Go figure. Go ahead - put pictures of yourself. I decided to get over my "no pics till I like how I look" deal. One day I will be old and scolding myself for not enjoying my life and not taking any photos for my kids to remember me by! Besides, with no pics how can you prove you were there? (smile)

Rhees Family

This is such a fun family.  They're sweet and playful.  It's fun to get to know them and try not to freeze in the cold rain!  It was...
