Mandatory Family Fun Day

Saturday was designated mandatory family fun day by Heather, so we went to a farm to get our pumpkins for Halloween. It took us about 40 minutes to get there, and we managed to get there without the girls getting into a fight. Once we got there, we decided to try our navigational skills in the corn maze. This was a first for all of us.

Here are the girls at the start. Would we make it out???















And we're off…















I've concluded that Ainsley channels a scavenger, because she is always picking things up from the ground. Corn, anybody?















I asked Heather if she knew how to orientate the map. She gave me her, "What the hell are you talking about" look, so I took over the duties as navigator.



The master and his grasshoppers. Are you imagining Heather standing there looking confused?










With the girls' help, we were able to successfully make it out of the maze.

We had a good time. We all had our moments. Can you pick out the crabby patty in this picture?














You can't go without getting your face painted!!














We each picked out our own pumpkins. One of them took a bit of an adventure, but you'll have to go here to read about that.
