Haunted Hayride

Tonight we went to a Haunted Hayride. A chilly night to stand outside for 2 hours but the kids did wonderful and we all had a good time. Tanya and Karly came to - Shaun stayed home with Connor as he is to young and is not into all of this scary stuff. By the time we were done - Tanya knew she made the right choice. Connor would of freaked!

At first you had to go into a barn and hear a story - slamming doors, warewolflf in the mirror - oh yah that was fun. Then we walked through this tunnel where it felt like you were in the twilight zone. As you exited the warewolf scared you to death. Thankful he didn't do it to the kids. We got on our wagon and off we went. Followed the path by lit torches and then we went into the forest. OMG! It was really neat. They had skits set up the entire way. Kids jumped out from the dark, huge spiders hung over head, chain saws started, trees fell and then a guy got on the wagon with his chain saw and pretend to cut. I thought we were really going to loose the kids at that point. We didn't. Then we went past a pirate ship and a pirate princess got on asking for gold. Next we came to the witches and they flew over head. My husband said it was nice that I lent them my stick! :) We all had a great time. A little cold by the end but it was fun.

The gang is ready to go....Tanya and Karly
Practicing our scary faces......."aren't you scared?"

By this point it's been almost 2 hours of waiting and we are freezing! They were humoring me...thanks guys!My new favorite picture of us.
