Amazing Acres

A few weeks ago we had a fun family outing to Amazing Acres near Edwardsburg. What a great place we have so close to us. They have 2 corn mazes, hayrides, gem mining, a huge slide, a goat "playground" and a bunny town. We had a great time being together on a gorgeous fall day.
Sometimes I think maybe they were born here!!

The bunny town. The bunnies would go in and out of these store fronts.


Who are these crazy animals?


Doesn't she resemble the Miss Pumpkin?



He kind of resembles her, too!!



My favorite family in the corn maze.



Can you tell they are on a mission?

He's my favorite!

The picture in the header is from there as well. I thank God for the fun day we had. We topped it off by going to Stacey's for some great steak. Yum! Yum!
