Hondo

  The last time I went to a corn maze was in Rexburg, ID with my family home evening group, about...6 years ago. Holy cow, that is a long time ago!!! Didn't realize it was so long till just now! Ha! Anyhow, we went this past Saturday with the Strongs and had a great time together.
  The corn maze was in Hondo, which is about 2 hours away, so we packed a ton of books, toys and snacks for the drive. Even though the girls didn't sleep almost the entire way, Kate passed out 10 minutes before we arrived, they both did great.
  Right when we got there we did the corn maze. There were 10 pages, all different categories, with clues to help you through the maze. We grabbed three pages; scouting, biblical facts and tiny tots. The kids had fun running through the corn and kicking up dust as they went. There was a ton of dust, everywhere!


  Once we were done with the maze we headed over to the slides. Oh my, how the kids loved the slides!  They would have gone down the slides till they passed out from exhaustion had we allowed it. We didn't. Instead we grabbed some yummy fair food. Smoked turkey leg, grilled chicken sandwich, the yummiest French fries I've ever had in my life, and a funnel cake. Oh.my.yum. 




  Afterwards we headed over to the hay ride which took us to the pumpkin patch. We did not buy any but the kids had a good time trying to pick them up.







  The rest of the evening was spent jumping, eating, feeding the goats, sliding and running around.







  The girls slept most of the way home which made for an easy transfer into bed.
  Spent Sunday morning doing a ton of laundry while listening to general conference. Man oh man, was that water dirty from all the dust. Extra rinse, Mr. Washing Machine? Why yes, please!
