 Enjoy corn mazes, pumpkin patches, haunted attractions, murdery mystery dinners & more! That fall chill is in the air which means that it's time for the 2024 Fall Festival at DixieMaze Farms, y'all!  I don't know about you guys, but I cannot WAIT to head out to the farm with the kids for a breath of fresh air. I want to go get lost in their corn field, watch the kids jump in their jumpy-thing, root for my favorite piggy in the piggy races and just enjoy the beautiful fall day! There is SO much to do out there, I could easily spend the entire day AND evening out there.  If you have older kids, you CAN literally do exactly that on Fridays and Saturday nights with their Murder Mystery Dinners for us adults AND their Haunted Attraction features for the older kiddos!  How much fun can one place provide?

What My Child Did This Past Summer: Do Parents Dread Those Annual Essays As Much As Their Kids?

I know that once school starts, Bregon will find himself inundated with questions and assignments all centered around "What I Did On Summer Vacation." 

I always worry that he will be the odd man out and not have anything to write about except for saying that he helped take care of his baby brothers and sister. 

Today, he started fencing camp. He hasn't been able to fence practically all year because of a wrist injury he sustained at school early in the year. 

He slipped on something in the hallway and fell on his wrist. 

The staff all thought that he had broken it because of the noise it made when he fell and the way it hung limp. 

In all actuality, he had a bad sprain. From the accident, sprung this very large scary looking cyst on his wrist that would either go down by itself or need to be lanced, according to his pediatrician. 

A few weeks later, he fell on it again. Only this time, whatever happened when the loud cracking sound occurred caused the cyst to start to shrink. 

I suppose good things can come out of bad after all! 

The knot is still on his wrist, only now it's much smaller and he has been cleared by the doctor to start fencing again. 

His maestro misses him, and he really misses fencing and his friends from the Sal. 

Because of Boy Scout camp, we managed to miss the first camp session. 

Luckily for him, there was a second session just after the Fourth of July. 

Bregon also took an acting workshop run by a very dear friend of ours, Mary Joris. 

The class was taught at East Bank Theater in Bossier and lasted 6 weeks. 

Unfortunately, he had to miss a few of the classes because of his season tickets to the Dallas Summer Musicals. 

He seems to have really enjoyed going to see the musicals. 

He was able to talk to a lot of the cast of "Camelot" and even was able to have his souvenir coconuts signed by "Patsy" from "Spamalot" which he got to see twice so I could go too! 

He has a new poster collection from the musicals from this season, most of which have many signatures on them from the cast members (he plans on redecorating his room with them soon!) 

I really hope that he has had a good time. My mother took me to Dallas to see the musicals as a child and I really learned a lot and enjoyed it.

It's been sort of neat being able to do the same thing with my son. 

We even wait at the backstage door for the actors to leave or come out to smoke so that he can talk to them and get their autographs. 

Hopefully, when he goes back to school, he will remember to write about all the good and fun things he has been able to do this summer. 

I sometimes wonder what the teachers think when he writes about helping out with the triplets instead of writing about kid type things in his journals and essays. 

Maybe this year, it will be different somehow.
