Yesterday, we decided to have some family time. It was a controversy between going 
apple picking at Bowman's (like we usually do) or going to the corn maze at Liberty Ridge Farm. I figured that going to the farm would be better for Nate....a lot more to do especially for his age!! We had went to Liberty Ridge probably 5 years ago with Tim and Beth, but we had went at night and went through the haunted maze. They have definitely expanded the last 5 years; new buildings and I think many more activities then there used to be. Jay let me sleep late, so we got 
off to a late start. However, I wish we went earlier because we could have spent the whole day there. We didn't do/see everything before it started getting dark. We went through one phase of the corn maze (there are 2), we did a few of the puzzles they had, saw only a few of the animals, went to the pumpkin patch, watched the pig races, rode the trolley, and Nathan and Jay rode the cow train. Of course we also got cider donuts! Oh, they also had this pumpkin 
maze that you could only make right turns to get to the goal. After Jay and about ten other people tried without success. I gave it a whirl and got it!! Next year, we are definitely going back and spending the whole day. We only spent about $35 for the day and that was because we got the dozen of donuts and 3 hot dogs/drinks. The kids were free (ages 3 and under) and we were $9 each. Just an idea if you are looking for something else to do this 
fall!

Looks like you all had a nice family day! Tim was just mentioning to me yesterday that he wanted to do the maze with the kids. I'm glad you went b/c now we know there's more there than before and know what to expect!
