To a Corn Maze and Beyond....

Doing a little blog catch up.....
A couple of weeks ago, I headed to Dallas for a dear friend's wedding. It was also the weekend of the A&M/Arkansas game (which was in Dallas), so Elizabeth got us tickets for the All Aggie Hullabaloo. Friday night, we (Mom, Dad, Elizabeth, and I) headed over to the new Cowboys stadium for a fun time! There were two concerts, an Aggie Wranglers performance, and then Midnight Yell. They showed some A&M promo video, and I'm not gonna lie - I got a little teary eyed. I miss College Station.

Here we are outside the stadium - gotta love a family self-portrait....                                                             

And our cute parents....

Then, my mom was going to take a picture of Elizabeth and me. After she snapped the picture, we looked at it....and this is what we saw.....

My mom was so proud of herself - she had zoomed in on Elizabeth and cropped me out of the picture -feel the love!
Take two:

A beautiful sight - the Aggie bus and Cowboys stadium:

The ridiculously huge you can see from 10 miles away jumbotron

Being good Aggies....

And you know you're getting older when Rev's keeper looks 12 and addresses you as "ma'am"!

On Saturday night, we went to Randi's wedding. Everything was simply elegant. There was a display of place cards for the dinner reception. The fabric on your place card cooresponded with the cloth napkins at your table - so creative!

 

And at one point, our table tapped into our own creativity, and made a layout of all the different coordinating items. Look at that flower- it is made out of paper! They were everywhere and you didn't know they were paper unless you stood super close to them.


This past Saturday, Brad, AC, and I headed out to a corn maze. AC is at a fun age to enjoy something like this, so we had a grand 'ol time partaking in all the corn maze farm had to offer!
How Tall This Fall?

In the maze.....

Anna Claire was so happy when she saw a real ear of corn in the maze.

After succesffully completing both parts of the maze, we enjoyed the other activities on the farm.
Duck races:

 Our cute little scarecrow:

A big slide made out of PVC pipe:

Pony rides:

The petting zoo that had sheep, goats, and this guy...AC said, "Mom, you have to take my picture with this donkey!" Ha! So I obliged...

Face painting:
She asked for a pumpkin and I'm not gonna lie - that is an odd looking pumpkin. And you have to love the moon on her forehead.

And the corn barn:
This was a small barn/storage shed type building that was full of deer corn for the kids to play in! So fun!

Stay tuned - this is AC's birthday week - lots of celebrating to do this week!
