An Ah-maze-ing Halloween 🎃

Hi there everyone 😀

Over the October half term Martin and I took Bobby for a return visit to the Lichfield Maize Maze for their Halloween event.

We’d enjoyed it so much in the summer we were really excited to see what was happening for Halloween.

As soon as we arrived we could see plenty of Halloween touches … we couldn’t wait to start exploring …
First stop was the pumpkin house …
Then it was time for the mazes. As in the summer Bobby was on the ‘mapping’ and this time we decided to start with the mini maze …
… which we finished in no time at all and headed straight for the main maze …
It was a much cooler day than when we’d visited in the summer and we didn’t have mum/nanny to slow down the pace so Bobby marched around at breakneck speed. He did allow us a very short breather at Bench 1 … but that was it …
Once we’d done it was picnic time … followed by some autumnal selfies …
Next up was toasting marshmallows on the fire pit. I’d been a bit savvy here and took a bag of our own and some long skewers … which saved a few pennies …
There was then a bit of running about and clambering …
… before heading into the pumpkin paddock …
There were some very good ‘skeleton-scapes’ …
… and so many pumpkins. Don’t tell anyone … but I’d already bought a pumpkin from Lidl for a couple of quid … so we just had a look …
There were a few last photos …
… before heading for home for our very first pumpkin carving attempt …
Excuse the number of pumpkin photos but we were all pretty pleased with our efforts … and yes … it is just the one pumpkin … we got a bit carried away …
On this occasion less was definitely not more 😂😂😂

It had been a brilliant day out. We had been lucky with the weather and it’s something we’d all definitely like to do again next year ☺️
