Corn Maze

We visited the local corn maze this past weekend, and had a great time! First we had to get pictures of our "butterflies":) Next, after given instructions, and our punch cards we were off! We really didn't think we would do the entire thing, but the kids loved it, and we were pretty good at finding our way. It was 7 miles long on 16 acres. This is at the beginning.
Lee and I trying to take a picture while keeping up with the children.

We had to find 24 signs, and punch our cards. Each punch hole was a different shape.
One of the lookouts that we could use, if needed, to keep our bearings. Our great seekers! We finished, and because we found all the signs, we could enter in a free Christmas tree give-away. I know not much of a prize, but we had so much fun together, that really was the prize :)
The sky was gorgeous. I don't think the picture does it justice.


The sunset was incredible. One nice thing living where it is flat, you can see the sunset better.

Our new addition!


This is our new kitten, Lucy Furr. :) She has joined our family as of yesterday! She is very cute, and feisty. She is completely black, and very fuzzy. So far she and our other cat, Naomi, are trying to be friends. They have had some disagreements, but are trying work it out. Carson has really wanted a cat of his own, and we felt like he was ready and willing to try. Welcome Lucy!
