Friday night we didn't do much. Went out to eat at Joe Senser's which is always good. Charlie crop dusted the entire restaurant when we left. How do I know this? B/c I was carrying her out of the restaurant and I could feel my hand vibrating from her farts. Ha! Good thing we were leaving! Hope it wasn't too smelly! :)
Saturday started out relaxing and slow paced but after Charlie's nap we picked it up! We headed down to Sever's corn maze which was great! We had never been there before but our old neighbors said it was a good time so we decided to check it out. At $13 per person it isn't cheap, actually kind of a rip, but there is a lot to do so I guess it's worth it in the end. And luckily Charlie is still young enough that she is free. Phew! We started out by getting some cheese curds and a corn dog. Tasty! Then we headed to the corn pit. Charlie LOVED it! It was so fun to watch her in there. She would sit and stare at all the other kids in the pit and then get a huge grin on her face and start picking up the corn and letting it all fall out of her hands and then flinging it around. She couldn't get enough of it!

| "Ooooooooooo corn!" |
 |
| "Ooooooooooo more corn!" |
 |
| What terrifying animals!!! |
To say Charlie was not impressed with the pig race was an understatement. She could care less. She was more interested in people watching and playing with a stick and barely glanced at the pigs but it was still pretty funny to watch.

| "Ooooooooo a stick! Who cares about the pig races?" |

| She makes a cute piggy! |
One last stop back in the corn pit and we decided we'd better head home so we could get some dinner in Charlie before heading out again. I can't wait to go back next year when Charlie will be able to enjoy the pumpkin patch even more. There was SO much more to do that she was still too little for. A corn maze and straw bale maze, jungle gyms, giant slides, giant blow up jumping "pillows" and a magic show just to name a few things we didn't get to do. I can guarantee we'll be back again next year!

After getting a bit of food in Charlie's belly and picking all the stowaway pieces of corn out of her diaper and clothes we headed out again to go down to Elko for the "Eve of Destruction"! They have all sorts of different vehicle races going on. Motorcycles, cars, school buses, etc. They even have some monster trucks and this time they had an actual tank that crushed some cars. Charlie LOVED the monster trucks. She totally zoned out when they were out driving around. It was fun to watch her see all this kind of stuff for the first time. Her eyes would get huge and she would do her ever famous "Ooooooooooo" face. I think she set a new record for how many times she made that face in one day. Hilarious.
We headed home a bit early b/c Charlie was exhausted. She zonked out the minute we hit the road. What a fun and busy day for our little peanut! She's such a treat! I just love taking her new places to see what she thinks of everything!
Today we are relaxing, cleaning up a bit, watching our fantasy football teams and playing. Charlie finally conquered her fear of the crawl tunnel she got for her birthday and now LOVES the thing so she crawls back and forth, back and forth, back and forth through it over and over again. As soon as Charlie wakes up from her nap we are going to carve the pumpkin that Omi and Paps gave her the other weekend. We'll see if she likes to stick her hand in the pumpkin goo. Should be fun to watch her face when she grabs it for the first time. Who wants to bet she makes her "Oooooooooo" face? :)
