A-Maisie-ing Maisie and friends at the maize maze 2011

Sunday morning Maisie and I met up with Lisa, Doug & Briana and Kathy, Matt & Chani for our fourth annual Cagle’s day where we enjoyed a day of farm fun and getting lost in the maize maze.  As always it was a fun day for the girls and the adults.

We arrived when the farm opened and it was quite chilly so we bundled up in winter jackets, hats & gloves. 

Briana, Chani and Maisie ready to enter the maize maze.  Each year I look at the ready to start the maize maze picture and am amazed at how much the girls have grown.  Here they are last year and in 2009 and from our first year way back in 2008 when they were oh-so wee.

And they’re off!

Three little sweeties leading the way to getting us all lost.

Once out of the maize maze we made our way over to the jumping pillow where the girls had a blast.

I have no idea how Maisie gets her body into that position.

She catches such great air.

She did it over and over.

Having fun.

Making it look oh-so easy. 

Loving every minute of it!

I had to add this picture, one of my favorites from when we visited Cagle’s in 2008.  Maisie’s first year on the jumping pillow and a picture of things to come. 

Next stop was the pony ride where the now big girls only needed Mom & Dad for the actual money but they took it from there.

Even though it was just a pony ride, Maisie loved being back on a horse as it has been months since her last time on a horse back at horseback riding camp.  

Excited and ready for the hayride.

Cuties, we asked them for hugs and to put their heads together.

We watched as sheepdogs herded sheep into a pen and then as the dogs herded the cows up to our wagon.

After the hayride it was time to feed the goats

and the cows too.

Considering that it was the day before Halloween there weren’t many pumpkins still for sale but the girls had fun posing and playing around those that remained. 

An open field and Maisie was head over heels happy after another wonderful day with friends at Cagle’s.

After our time at Cagle’s we all headed out for lunch.

The girls enjoyed sipping pink lemonade

And slurping noodles.

Another fun day with friends and great memories all around.

It’s another cold night here in Georgia so it was soup for dinner.  It was a bit like a restaurant though as we each enjoyed a different soup.  Maisie had Udon Soup, Eammon ate a recently made new soup for us, Roasted Garlic & Potato Soup.  I have taken pictures of the soup but I still need to write the post so watch for that one as this soup is delicious!  Finally, I happily enjoyed a bowl of Mulligatawny Soup which I had earlier packaged and frozen, so a quick thaw and dinner was ready.  Just click on the picture to be taken to the Mulligatawny Soup recipe.
