Fun Fridays in the Fall

The past couple of Fridays we have gotten to hang out with our good friends Peter & Bethany and Lon & Sharon. Ryan and I are so thankful for all of the wonderful friendships we have in our church! Here are some of our adventures:

2 Fridays ago we went to the Oakes Farm cornmaze out in Corryton (one of my favorite things to do in the Fall!). There were rumors one of the mazes was haunted, then the sign said "If you are pregnant you cannot go in this maze," so thank goodness (for Gavin's sake) we had to pick the non-haunted one! You would not see a smile on my face if we had been chased by chainsaws through the maze. We heard people screaming going through the haunted one. Wow, my heart is beating fast just thinking about it. :)

No trip in the Fall is complete without my favorite--hot chocolate!
After finding all the clues--without a flashlight! We had to use our phones to see the map when we needed help. And...we did a little bit of illegal cutting through the corn to finish.We didn't get home until almost midnight!

This past Friday, the guys planned such a fun and thoughtful evening for us. Peter gave us girls his GPS and had programmed 3 destinations for us to follow. Bethany was our tour guide.

The first destination was Carl Cowen park where Peter had hidden a CD of poems that he recorded himself reading. It took us a while to find it, but we finally did!

The second destination was Gettysview Country Club.

Peter left his credit card for us to get appetizers and wine (water for me of course)! We got to sit out on the patio and watch the sunset. It was gorgeous!

The final destination was our house where the guys surprised us with a cheese fondu candlelit dinner. There were red roses at each of the girl's seats!
The best part: this was for no special occasion--just the guys showing how much they love and care for us!
Thanks, guys, for planning such a wonderful evening for us!
