If you're anywhere close to Rexburg, Idaho this month, you've gotta check out the Rexburg Straw Maze (a.k.a. the "Amazing Maze," as it is called by the local newspapers and TV station). We took the kids opening night, and it was fun!
The brains and brawn behind the whole project (from left to right):
Fodie (my brother's friend), Cameron (it's on his family's farm), and Matt (my brother)
About to get lost.
Drake was our guide.
Yup, we're lost.
Will we ever get out?
Graham thoroughly enjoying himself.
Still lost.
Drake pointing out victory!
Happy to have made it out.
Thanks Matt! It's awesome!
If you want to take younger kids, I suggest going while it's still light outside so it's not too scary for them (Drake only started getting scared near the end, when he didn't think we'd find our way out). Once night falls, it's a lot more difficult and fun... and scary.

Hey Ang! Looks like you guys had a great time in the maze. We'll have to find one in Denver that we can traverse sometime.
Your kids are so cute. They seem so well-behaved. I hope Drake enjoys preschool. I'm sure Graham will be copying Drake soon by pretending to go to school. :)
