Corn Maze and Pumpkin Patch

While my parents were in town for the weekend

we decided that we would go to the pumpkin patch

and to a corn maze. So off we went to Linder Farms...

Here is a picture of Nathan as we were entering

the farm...

Nathan and I as we are starting to walk around.

We went late in the evening so it was starting to get

chilly but Nathan was warm and didn't want to wear

his coat at this point in time....

Mom and Dad while we were in line waiting

to buy our tickets to get in...I forgot my camera and

used my cell phone to take this picture so it

didn't turn out the best...

This is Mom and Dad starting to walk

into the corn maze....

Mom and I at the entrance to the corn maze.

We were chilly so I loaned Mom my vest and

I put on Nathan's coat...

Mom and Dad standing in the corn...

We had so much fun wandering through

the corn maze in the dark and then we came out

and decided we should take our pictures in the corn..

They had a fire pit that you could stand around

to get warm so we checked it out and watched

some kids playing on the hay bales behind us.

Then we decided to go on a hayride and check

out some pumpkins. It was really fun going

on it at night because you got to see all of the

lights in the distance...

I was going to take a picture of the hayride

but forgot so you just get a picture of

Mom and I sitting on the ride. Hope you

enjoyed going to the corn maze with us.

Here is an arial view of the corn maze we went

to...each year they do a different theme. This

year was the Boise State Broncos...

Our words make a difference

Growing up, were you ever told, "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all?" I remember being taught this when I was pretty young. Our words matter and if we can't say something nice, it's better not to say anything. In today's world, especially with social media, it seems that a lot of people have forgotten this message or maybe were never taught it to begin with. Another childhood saying was "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me." Unfortunately, this saying is not true either. Words can cause lasting damage that is very difficult to overcome. We need to be mindful when we are speaking that our words are used to encourage and uplift one another and not used to destroy each other. There is a scripture verse that I have been meditating on this week and it is listed below. It states that our conversation needs to be seasoned with salt, but also full of grace so that we know how to answer ...

Trust in God

Today while watching Superbook with my children the theme of the episode was to trust in God. "Trust in God and He will show the way." Do we really understand what it means to trust God? Can we truly comprehend this statement? It's easy when things are going our way. It can be easy when things aren't going our way, but life is still going well. However, do you still trust God when life is hard? When everything seems to be going wrong in life? Do you trust God through the hard stuff? There is an old time song that says "The God on the mountain is still God in the valley. When things go wrong, you know that He will make them right. The God of the good times is still God in the bad times and the God of the day, is still God in the night." Think about the words to that song. No matter what, God is still God. He still has control over the outcome. Recently, my mom and I were talking an...

God's timing

My kids love to watch Superbook, it's a cartoon about Bible stories. Today the episode was about Lazarus and about God's timing. This past weekend I heard a song on the radio and I can't remember the song, but one of the lines talks about how faith can move mountains and God can still perform miracles today. I have been thinking about those two lines this week, how God can move mountains and still perform miracles today. Do we have the faith to stand and believe this statement? Then watching Superbook with my kiddos this morning, it was all about God's timing and that sometimes God has a better plan for us than what we can think or ask for. Have you ever felt when you were praying that you just didn't know how or when your prayers would be answered? Sometimes, it doesn't feel like your answers are coming or that your prayers are going anywhere. Did you know that God still hears each and every one of those prayers? It just might not be His ...
