it was a-MAZE-ing!

Last week I decided to plan a surprise date for Fernando and go somewhere fun and do something that we'd never done before. after a bit of thinking i came up with the idea to go to the edmonton corn maze.
saturday night was the planned date time.... i wanted to go when it was starting to get dark but by the middle of the afternoon the wind was picking up and the clouds started rolling in and i made the decision to go earlier and hopefully make it there and through the maze before it started raining!
we got all bundled up and ready to face the adventure... fernando still had no idea where we were going but he was curious and excited anyways.
once we got there he was really excited and so was i... neither of us had ever gone to a corn maze. it doesn't look like much when you first get there. just a big field. nothing exciting... then you take your little trivia sheets to tell you where to turn at the check points and head in to the maze. you really don't know what direction you're facing after the first few turns! we figured out where we were going eventually... not always on our first try and we ended up a little dusty but it was such a fun way to spend a couple hours.
it was so much fun that we decided that we should go on little adventures like that more often. i can't wait... next time is fernando's turn for a surprise adventure!
