Fun, Food and Laughter

Hello!!
This weekend has been great! Dan and Joy met us early Saturday morning to go through a Corn Maze a few miles South of us. We had a great time, working our way through the maze. Each maze had 6 stops with posts driven into the ground with a unique shaped hole punch that you could use to prove that you made it to each spot. It was a blast! After the maze we came home and stuffed a turkey and put it in the oven for 3 hours. Joy took a little nap as she had been up late due to work the night before. Then we played an exciting game of Poker and waited for Anna, Josh and Sarah to show up. By the time of their arrival only Dan and Joy were left in the game, and we started more intense dinner preparation, mashing potatoes and preparing the crescent rolls and yams for the oven. Once we pulled the tukey out we put in the yams and rolls. Then Jonathan carved the turkey and I made Gravy. Everything came together and Ken (a friend of Anna's) arrived and we prepared to feast. Jonathan said the blessing and we dug in! Sarah told us a story of how she got mugged by monkey's in Costa Rica, we almost died of laughter. Afterwards we played telephone pictionary while our bodies made room for dessert. Dessert was wonderful! We had a pumpkin pie and chocolate cream pie and vanilla and pumpkin ice cream. It was delicious! After that people slowly headed home, all it all it was a success!
Today Jonathan and I made use of our leftovers for sandwiches, Yum.
That is out great weekend!
God Bless!
