Autumn surprise

Sometimes, it seems too much of an ordeal to grab the three kids and the sleep-deprived stressed husband for a family outing. It just takes a long time to pack our things. And then there's the misunderstandings. Husband asks for me to prepare the cash and I hear, "Take the cell phone." We arrive at the corn maze with a cell phone and little money.  After a little brainstorming, I remember that I have some cash stashed in the car!

The actual maze was okay. The blue sky, however, was beautiful. I also did not know that this farm had a nature trail with a long stream going through it.



We're enjoying mushrooms more since we've read Katya's Book of Mushrooms.

Of course the kids enjoyed seeing the animals best. I love that this place is only ten minutes away from our home!

Love the photo of the kids running into the woods! Sounds like everything turned out great!

Yeah, that woods pic is a good one. Oh, and "Look, ma... no guard rails!" =)

Ha! Well, the stream was not deep at all and we were right next to her.
