Corn Maze+Scriptures=Family Home Evening

Such a nice cool evening to enjoy time with our sweet and eager little boys.  Ryan and I took advantage of Monday Evening's crispness and time off to go to the Corn Maze in Rigby at the Family Fun Zone.  The boys had a blast!  Mom and dad had a blast!  And we even got in a little spiritual message.  











As we traveled through the maze to hole-punch markers and such, there were times we got lost.  Luckily we had a map that showed us the way, showed us where markers were, and where to go.  Sometimes we felt like we had been down a path previously, so we thought we could do it on our own, or let the boys lead.  However, we were still lost!  So, back to the map.  

Like life, sometimes we feel like we can find our way on our own, especially when things are going well and we're doing 'good'. But I appreciated the gentle reminder Monday evening, that we need our scriptures, the words of the prophets, both past and present, and most important, the companionship of our Savior, to find our way and stay on the right path that will lead us to return to live with Him.  

What a sweet, sweet, evening.

I love mazes! They hold so many lessons for us to learn! We had a lesson about following the prophet as well when we went through!
