101 Market Maze 2011

There is this great nursery just off Hwy 101 in Elk River/Rogers that has a pretty good maze & other fun for the kids each year. Well after snatching some great deals on tickets we set off to see just what all the fuss was about. We had so much fun, I think everyone was surprised!


Conner at the rubber duck races, was fun introducing them to the water pumps & they were amazed that this used to be the way to get water back then...

Corn Pit time, of course this calls for many fun activities like wrestling/smack downs,



burying yourself,


and corn angels!


Maze time, here we're deep in the maze & at one of the many signs posted throughout. On the signs are riddles that you have to solve along with letters that require unscrambling for a chance to win a shopping spree!


We were stumped at the end. We gathered all the letters & found the word, check, then for the "special riddle question" which the answer qualifies you for the drawing.... we were at a loss! What beloved Halloween symbol is also important in the pollinating of flowers? A bee certainly isn't a Halloween symbol, while our fingers were on the speed dial to cousin Seth who we KNOW has the answer, I inquired with one of the nursery workers... it's a bat!!!! Never knew they played a role in pollinating!

Oh the giggles from these two while running through this maze, pure joy!



Another favorite, potato sling shots!



Absolutely without a doubt, the peddle race cars were the best! These things flew!


The family rounding the track, Conner leading the pack (of course he was caught cheating quite often cutting across the infield)!


Daddy showing off peddling backward!


Conner & his super cool ride!


Brie's ready to peel on outta here!


Everywhere we turned was a new funny face board...


Oh and the crazy headbands too...


Our cute lil' pumpkins!


Wish we could show you all of them, each one was more creative than the other...


What a beautiful & handsome crew!!!

Loved this one!

Hope you had an amazing day kiddos, we sure did watching you scamper all over the place! Love you so!
