This last weekend, we made another batch of marshmallows. Unfortunately (or fortunately?) I didn't haven enough light karo syrup, so used some dark syrup, too. I was afraid the marshmallows wouldn't turn out white, but Ryan suggested we add some cocoa powder to the powdered sugar mixture. Okay - GREAT IDEA! They were so yummy. We even cut some big for s'mores. Did I mention they were yummy? :)

Small Wonders at the Corn Maze
Small Wonders had a field trip to a local Corn Maze. We are so blessed with such a great preschool program and teachers. The boys were invited to come along, too, so we all loaded up and headed out to get lost in the corn!

About the mid-way point of the maze, there's a bridge that takes you up and over. The kids loved looking out over the whole maze! I can't believe I didn't take a picture from up there!
The boys and Perry. We are in the same Sunday school class and small group as Perry's parents. We really love that family!
At certain points they had questions you could answer, multiple choice. Each choice had a different direction to go. The boys loved this!
The Three Amigos. They were all in the same class last year, too! So cute! Allison, Taylor, and Leslie.
Apple Days
When we got home from Silver Dollar City, Aunt Lisa and Annika and Mira were at our house! The next morning, we worked on making apple sauce and apple chips. The kids all had a blast peeling and slicing the apples. Allison never left the table. I think she peeled 50 apples by herself. The apple sauce is soooo good!
Silver Dollar City
Last week we headed out to Silver Dollar City for Ryan's birthday. Of course, Ryan - the goofy, full-of-personality, camera-shy kid isn't in any of these pictures!

The show was very entertaining! It's too bad I didn't get a picture of the guy whose butt was on fire!
