Corn Maze and Chickens

Watching four of our grandkids for almost an entire week in October was challenging but filled with fun. The biggest challenges involved getting the kids settled down for bed each night, trying to get them out the door and figuring out how to deal with the conflicts. Thankfully we had far more fun than challenges. The fun included two trips to the corn maze....

where we slid and bounced,

put on disguises,


rode the wild cows,

tried out the hay ride and "keep left (or was it right?)" maze,

got buried in the corn box,

and maneuvered our way through corn mazes. The boys even won prizes in the pig race!

More fun was had in our backyard as trees were climbed and decorated,

popsicles were consumed,

chickens became playmates,

and more!

I think we were all a little sad that this would be the last time we'd get to entertain the grandchildren in our Idaho home. We had just sold our home the week before! Consolation came from the fact that we'd be moving closer to these kids and other family members. Who knew what adventures lay around the corner!
