Fall, Friends, and Fright!

If it's October, it must be time for our annual trip out to Saunders Farm to celebrate haunting season and all things Hallowe'en. It's an annual trip that is not to be missed, full of Hallowe'en festivities and attractions, especially the haunted hayride! It's always a blast to see how the kids react to it each year, last year Logan vowed to protect Isabelle and ended up crying alongside her, while this year they were both a bit timid but not as overwhelmed. That reaction was reserved for Brooklyn, who seemed traumatized but managed to survive intact, while her older sister would have gone back many more times if she could have. Oliver mainly thought it was funny and didn't seem spooked in the least, always safe in the arms of his Mommy. We tried to assure them all that in 10 years they will want to come together and do this as a group after dark, with their parents waiting to pick them up outside when the place closed. They didn't seem to buy this story. The kids have such a great time at this place, they really know how to do Hallowe'en right. It was the perfect day to get us in the mood for the 31st. With the house decorated, the costumes planned and the pumpkins picked, we're ready. Bring on the candy!
