South Texas Corn Maize

A few weekends ago, we met up with some friends to enjoy some Fall activities. We headed out to the South Texas Corn Maize for some fun. They had a corn ma(i)ze to get lost in as well as lots of other family fun activities. Things started off a little rocky for Emerson...she wasn't feeling well and her nap had been cut short, but she got into it and ended on a good note.

Beautiful Michal Riley and her momma, Kim along with handsome Alex lost in the maze.

Amy, Michael Riley and Alex in the barrel ride. The kids enjoyed this A LOT more than Amy did.

Emerson and her dad in the barrel ride....this was a high point for Emerson and she wanted to go again.

Emerson's favorite part....feeding the adorable goats. The maze sold feed for them in ice cream cones. The goats would run to the fence when they saw the ice cream cones. Some ate the cones others didn't. Once the goats had finished eating the feed out of her cone, she'd bend down and pull the grass and put it in the cone to get the goats to come back to her so she could pet them some more. I bet she would have been a girl in heaven if we had brought one of the goats home.

Here we are lost in the maze. The maze had numbered posts in it that corresponded to questions on hint sheets. If you got the answer right, it told you which direction to turn in. Some questions were harder than others and we'd find ourselves back at the post only to try again. It was fun getting lost. However, we were filthy afterward and in bad need of a bath.
