We decided to take a little trip to Severs Corn Maze this year, for the first time. Macy and Jorey brought a friend. Again, Brianna came with Jorey and Macy brought Maddie (finally, a girl friend!)
Everyone had a blast. We did the corn maze, slide, corn pit (Macy had corn in her crack and we had some scandalous removal situations!)
We went down the big slide, did a hay ride, got faces painted, watched the piggy races, and went through the corn maze...goodness, it was a busy day, but it was a good time. Before we left, we purchased a big bag of kettle corn and everyone shared it on the way home. I think that was the worst idea ever known, as there was popcorn covering every seat and all of the floor...wow...what a mess. But, everyone was so good. So many people asked us if they were all ours with their mouths open in awe...ha.
I'd love to have 5 kids, but it just isn't going to happen. Sometimes, when you consider time, money, and reality, you have to just say "when".

Granny Kay is 80
Norah, Macy, Olivia, Jorey, and Brennan |
It's getting to be so fun to get all the kiddos (my cousins' kids) together to play. They're all just as big of nerds as we were when we were growing up and playing together. I love this picture of some of them as they played school together in the back of the church. Please note Jorey's boots. You can't see them very well, but they say Woody and Buzz on the toe and have Buzz Lightyear and Woody on the side - they light up...as much as I tried to talk her out of these God awful shoes, she thought she needed them and wouldn't accept any substitutes. We bought them and they actually looked kinda cute with this dress (when you can't see the buzz/woody light up emblem)

Granny and her BFF, Evelyn. I love that they are still buds. |
A Weekend at Orange Papa & Grammas
Jorey put this outfit together herself. |
It arrived...prior to the helmets and proper safety gear...and they thought it was sweet. It's built for little people, but if you squeeze, big ole folks like me can fit in there. I have to admit, it's pretty awesome to go peeling around in that thing. The girls just giggle like crazy. Papa kinda likes to join in the fun, too. Luckily, he still fits in there, too.
Gramma and Grady watched all the action from the sidelines |
Sunday morning, we were all getting ready and Papa got down on the floor and was singing Merle Haggard to Grady. Grady was totally mesmerized and sat still, just staring at him with his mouth open. It was hilarious. When he'd stop singing, Grady would go back to playing, but when Papa sang Merle, he had to tune in.

Mario & Luigi
Macy had SAC in Eagan for 2 weeks and they went to the Civic Arena for part of it. Every day, she asked for a mustache out of the vending machine...I refused. Fortunately, Dad is weak and purchased these because we've had a lot of laughed with our ladies and their facial hair.
At some point, I'll add the video of them dancing and singing with these...it's way better than the still image.
