Corn Maze in the Rain

Today the church had an activity planned at the local corn maze. It rained pretty much all day but that didn't stop the die hard Halloween/Fall fans of our branch!
Here are the boys loading up with the missionaries, Elders Rodriguez and Grigg, to head off for the maze. Both of the masks they are wearing (only for the picture, though) are the boys'. Kids at heart!
Here is Brother Jones faithfully cooking in the rain. With his amazing homemade cooker, he is always in charge of cookouts!
I think our branch may be a little crazy sticking about in this rain! Poor Brother Van Ornum was there since around noon. We didn't get there until after 5:00 p.m. and left a little before 7:00 p.m. so my awe of Brother Van Ornum sticking around through all the rain, is high!
The owners of the Right Choices Corn Maze actually closed the maze down but he still let us cook on his property and even joined us. He was kind enough to take us on a tractor/hay ride anyways, though. Yes, our bums were quite wet afterwards!
Aren't they so stinkin' cute!?!
When we got home Elder Grigg spoiled Bitty with some chips on the couch. I left to run an errand and Bitty cried. He felt bad for him and this is how he got him to calm down. I was about to get on to him for eating on the couch but noticed how cute it was...how could I get on to him for this!

Hey I know that missionary! He has always had a soft spot for a crying kiddo. Thanks for taking care of him.
