Corn Maze 2012

Monday, October 15th we went to the Cajun Country Corn Maze for their homeschool day.  The day started off checking out the turkey and different kinds of chickens they had.

Of course when you're trying to take a picture through chicken wire, you get a picture like this which is better than the actual pictures of the chickens!

After the chickens, it was time for the pig races. Our neighbors got chosen separately and then Farmer Brown put them in a team. Aidan said, "I don't want to be on her team. She's my sister!"

This is their first year homeschooling and I said that you could tell they weren't your typical homeschoolers. Because they were actually cheering on the pigs, while most of the other kids just stood there.

Miriam & Emma were chosen in the next round and partnered together. Way to show some enthusiasm there Miriam! In the end, their pig won and they got pig noses.

Next it was time to actually do the maze. As usual, most of my kids took off and left me so I have no pictures of them in the maze.

Now it's time to play...everyone's favorites...the cow trains...fast & bucking!

ISO Flag Football 2012–Game 3

Luke's game was 1st at 9:00. The picture on the right is typical of Luke during the game. He's always telling his teammates where to go. It's hard to tell if he's being helpful or bossy!

I love this picture that Coach Ron took of him kicking. I missed this with my camera and another example of Luke telling his teammates the play.

At 10:30, Cameron and Levi played and Micah cheered.

Most of the time while I watched Cameron's game he played quarterback. After each play, he would go back to Coach Jason and get the next play. He was a little upset after their offensive drive because his teammates couldn't catch the balls that he was throwing.

Levi played a good game again...pulling flags and scoring touchdowns! Daddy was even impressed by his moves.

Oh and then there's Micah & Cole. Micah had an attitude before she went to her team and I didn't watch her cheer much. She went to the bathroom at the beginning and then I moved to watch Cameron's game. She was cheering at Levi's game. Cole...well being the typical 2-year old...he threw a temper tantrum in the middle of the field after Luke's game.

I did get alot of pictures from Luke's game because I was mostly watching Levi's game.
Cameron had a double header so we watched all of his 1st game and I just watched a couple of plays during his 2nd game.

Madison made a sign for the Patriots (Luke & Aidan's team) and Miriam helped hold it up to show support for their brothers' team.


Wow! What a difference a year makes for Levi. He wasn't scared and actually got a flag and multiple touch downs.

She's usually behind but at least she's trying!
