Christmas Lights

We did a 3K nighttime holiday walk through one of our local parks Tuesday. The park was decorated with holiday nights everywhere. It is nice to walk and see the lights slowly instead of driving through the park and we all got some exercise. I posted 2 pictures I took so everyone can enjoy all their hard work. It is hard to believe Christmas is almost here. Where did the time go?

Come to the Table

We had the best time at a letterboxing gathering at Table Rock State Park Saturday. Thanks for dtandfambly and the J Walkers for putting the gathering together. We saw some friends and met some new ones. We were able to put names with faces. Overall, we had a blast.


The leaves appeared to be at their peak. They are gorgeous! The weather was in the high 60s with no rain.

Here is a shot of one of the fabulous trees.


We found lots of letterboxes. Here Jordan and I are stamping in. There were tons of letterboxes at Table Rock. We were unable to find them all but that gives us a great excuse to visit again. We have been letterboxing for almost a year now and we found our 100th letterbox Saturday!

The trees, mountain and reflection off the water were beautiful!
Here is Jordan carrying our letterboxing supplies and Penny is peeping out of the bag. Penny is a webkinz that is traveling around the country letterboxing with different families. She is from NY and she visiting us this month.

Corn Maze


We visited a giant corn maze Sunday. Jordan had earned his ticket to get in from completing a summer reading program at the library. This corn maze had a pirate theme. It was in the shape of a pirate ship at sea. Every group had a flag. If we got lost, we were instructed to wave our flag and someone would help us. Chris asked them how they made this amazing corn maze. They said a GPS and a tractor. It took us about 1 and 1/2 hours to get through the maze. Luckily we never had to wave our flag. The stuffed pig on Chris' shoulder is Hunter's class webkinz, Spoink. He came home with Hunter this weekend. Hunter had to write in Spoink's journal about his adventures this weekend.
