96. Get lost in a corn field

Well I've managed to get lost in a corn field. Yup!

We went out to The Haunted Corn Maize on Sauvie Island for some good ol' spooky fun!! It was frigid cold. I was not prepared. I still had fun. The maze was actually quite spooky and we were startled quite a few times. I was impressed with it, actually. I have been to haunted houses before and there was typically nothing spooky about it - or there were crowds of people ahead of us who ruined our experience with excessive screaming. This was not at all the same. For the most part you couldn't see where "ghouls" were hiding because they constantly moved around behind the corn. It was fun!We had planned on getting pumpkins after the maze, but they had closed the patch and it was too dark and I was ready to leave cause I was freezing cold! So we went home and decided to do pumpkins the next day.

Dustin, Katie, Mike, Heather and us in the corn!

The next day, after we got home from taking the dogs on a long walk through the Hoyt Arboretum we headed over to the Roloff's Farm (Little People, Big World on TLC) just to check it out. It was about an hour from our house so we thought 'what the heck.' The farm was much smaller than we thought it would be - at least the pumpkin part of it, I am sure if we took a tractor ride we could have seen the entirety of the 32 acre farm. We meandered around looking for the perfect pumpkin and saw Amy and Jacob Roloff entertaining visitors and taking pictures with them, lots of kids running around and enjoying the place. It was much more fun than finding a pumpkin at the grocery store or parking lot patch! After we got our pumpkin seat belted into the car safely we headed over to the farm where the corn maze was to browse through their market. We ended up taking home some honey, a sugar pumpkin, some cheese, apples, and apple cider. Oh and on our way out we got a caramel apple!

 

I love fall. :-)
