To Be Safe....

Welp, it snowed today.
I figured I best document this on the blog. Why? Well the other day I was having a "discussion" with Jared about how it snowed way earlier last year. I said,
"It was like October or something".
He disagreed.
So naturally I went to the blog for reference. I would just rather be safe than sorry, incase next year we have the same "discush" and I want to hear those sweet words,
"You were right."


It wasn't too long before Jared and his dad decided they really need to get the plow on the four wheeler.


So what else has been going on? Why has it been 3 weeks since last post? I got scolded from my mom today for being such a slacker of the blog world. Apparently she checks it right when she gets home from work and for the last 3 weeks she has been sadly disappointed. Sorry mom, I shall do better.


Truth is we have just been super boring lately. Jared's parents are remodeling their upstairs and he and the rest of the family have been spending a lot of time on that, trying to get it all done before Christmas. So this means between work/school/remodel, we do nothing else. I have high hopes for the future though. December brings many happy blogging days and just happy days in general.
I love me some Christmas time!!! Busted out the music today and could not be happier about it.
'Tis the Season already in my book...

Did We Not Learn Anything From Last Year?

Saturday we decided to try our luck at a Corn Maze again. I think it is because last year the whole family was not present for the near death experience and they wanted a piece of the action. However, this year we went to a way more awesome one. Also, it was not just my sisters and I stuck with all the kids. We had our manly men with us this time. They had so many funtivities there. It is called Little Bear Bottoms in Wellsville. Loved It!!! They had this huge hay stack you could climb up and they even had a tunnel or two you could crawl through(if you do not have claustrophobia, of course). Then you could jump off the hay stack onto some mattresses. The kids loved it. They also had a Spooky Barn Ride, a String Maze, a Haunted River Walk, the Big Corn Maze, the Little Corn Maze, Homemade Donuts, Concessions, a huge ole' fire pit....I think that was all. It was such a cute little place, way better than any other corn mazes I have been to.

This picture is absolutely amazing! How I timed this just right, I have no idea! But I just love it..
Who says white boys can't jump?
Jared and I a little ways up the huge hay stack...
From close to the top, the corn maze is behind us
We had so much fun! A lot of the group(everyone but me, Jared, Jeremy, and Doug) gave up on the Big Maze and went through the Little Maze. I'm not gonna call them quitters...ok yes I am....but as soon as they gave up we pretty much found our way out of the Big Maze. I simply knew there was absolutely no way Jared was going to give up without conquering the maze. It would have really bothered him to not finish it, so I'm glad there were a few that wanted to do it with us.
But we all had a good time, even mom who started to panic about 5 minutes into the adventure. She did say that she was "still having fun because she was with her kids and grandkids." I said,"That is great because you might have to eat one of us if we are in here much longer!" Thank goodness it didn't come to that. It only took us about an hour and a half...is that good?
After the maze we went and got some ice cream. What a great way to end a great day!

Punkins...

Yesterday was a good day. I didn't work yesterday and Jared had Fall Break from school so we got to spend the day together. Our sister-in-law, Amy, took our pictures again(in the beautiful fall leaves and I can't even wait to see them!), we spent some time with family, and then we carved pumpkins.

I love carving pumpkins! It was tradition each Halloween when I was growing up. Jared always acts like he is not so fond of carrying this tradition on, but every year we carve them and he has fun. Last night was no exception!

Pumpkin guts!

Mine is the one on the left. After we lit them I told Jared that it looks like his pumpkin did something embarrassing and mine is rolling its eyes at it...He said, "Yeah, kinda like real life."
