Corn Maze.. in the Dark!

Last Friday was a chilly evening, but we bundled ourselves up to head to one of the local orchards to try out the corn maze.. in the dark! We've done the corn maze every year in the daylight, I'm not sure if it was the dark that made it harder or maybe it was genuinely harder.. but we didn't make it out at the end. We were doing pretty well for awhile, then we must've taken a wrong turn at some point because suddenly we found ourselves only a short distance from the VERY BEGINNING! What!? I of course did not want to admit defeat, but it was approaching the kids bedtime and Caden was tired of walking, while Cole was already being carried.. alas we went back out the in and headed on home.

I can now relate to all those movie/tv scenes when someone runs into a corn maze and the killer or whomever chases after them and they get all confused in the corn. Well.. everything they portray is real! The corn is so tall you barely have a grasp on where you are and as the wind blows the corn rustles so you think someone is in the corn. I definitely would not want to be in the corn maze or any corn field for that matter by myself!
