So me and a whole bunch of friends went to the Corn Maize (yes with an "i") last saturday. It was a ton of fun, we went through the maize a few times and then we played find the coins, one of our friend brought all these gold and silver coins and scattered them thruout the maize and however got the most won a prize. I only found 1 *sniff* out of like 95! Then we had a scanveger hunt all over the farm, I won that one and got a big bottle of Jelly Bellys the next game we played when It was dark and it was sticker tag. We all had stickers and if we saw someone with our group we had to stick a sticker on them and then run before they stuck one on us. I ended up with 6 stickers out of 13 so not to bad. Anyways, here is some pictures of the our fun time.

This is what you can aim for when shooting the cannons.

we did the maze last year in the dark and will most likely do that again this year as Lexi loves to be scared. Have you went to the haunted house at the fairgrounds yet? Im hoping to take Lexi this weekend but have two bdays to celebrate and neither friend wants to be scared ... lol ... I cant see the pictures on my work pc but will check them out tomorrow when Im home

We hit up a corn maze already this year too but it's not one of the maize ones (which are bigger and better!). Looks like fun!! Our corn is still nice and green and growing like crazy!! I told my Mom that the man that owned the farm was going to actually get to harvest his corn maze this year!!! Love the pics! Thanks for sharing!

I haven't been in the haunted house, I'm not really into the scary things lol. The corn maize was pretty good this year. There was already alot of corn knocked down so you better go soon before its all gone lol.
