Another beautiful day

I just simply can't get over the weather we have been having. Although I do keep thinking that we will have to pay for it later with a very cold winter. In the meantime, I'll just keep enjoying it.

Today we went and did a corn maze with the kids. A little bit pricey ($6/person) but it was fun - there were 9 mailboxes and you get a puzzle piece in each box that makes up the map of the maze. You also got a map to use while you were in the maze. The kids loved the bridge - the raised bridge that you could use to see the whole spread of the maze. The kids also got a pumpkin and we got some little gourds. I picked out a dried gourd that I'm going to try and sand down and paint.

This is a goal of some folks on 43Things: Fall is here! This season I will let something go (let it fall away). I'll surrender a habit, a person, an excuse I keep using. I Choose to surrender it and move forward in my life. This will set me free. I'm working on adding this goal to my list, but I will need to get rid of something already on my list. So I'm putting it here to remind me to put it on my other list. About the goal itself? I like the idea and it would be a smart, good thing to do BUT (there's always a 'but' isn't there?) whether or not I'm capable about such a thing is a whole 'nother ball of wax. See this goal. Making smart decisions is not always what I'm good at. Fly by the seat of my pants - and go with what sounds good at the moment? Yeah, that's more my style.

The fall will already be a busy one, since Ahren is now in two plays. Believe (a Christmas type production) rehearsals started tonight and will be every Sunday and Monday evenings for 2 hours each night. Then next week, we will start rehearsals for Peter Pan on Friday nights (then after the new year, they go to 2x a week. I'm just hoping that she hasn't bitten off more than she can chew and doesn't burn out on theater.
