Yesterday, Wayne and I took the girls to Barnyard Boo at Thanksgiving Points' Farm Country. There were all the usual farm things they have all year long - petting zoo, pigs, cows, sheep, a pony ride, a hay ride etc. - but since it's October they also had some Halloween activities for the kiddies to enjoy. It was a gorgeous day and the girls had fun. A word, though, to any parents who might want to go - the lines were SO long. If I did it again, I would definitely go on a weekday. Each activity was fun. . . but not fun enough to warrant a 15 minute wait in line. Afterward, we stopped at a little burger place on the way home. It was such a nice morning together as a family. I can already feel the excitement of the holidays!

| Malia LOVED riding the horses |
 |
| We used the "ride the pony" bribe for days. Kina loved it. |
 |
| The girls making their witches. They also made green slime, went pumpkin bowling, pinned the wart on the witch and got their faces painted. |
 |
| When we were still at home and getting ready to leave to Thanksgiving Point, Malia grabbed a roll from the kitchen to "feed the cow". She held on to it all morning and the whole car ride there. While waiting in line I asked her to give it to me and after a while I thought she forgot about it so I threw it away. Bad idea. The SECOND she saw this one she turned to me and asked me for "the bread for the cow". Oops! My bad. |
 |
| After making Halloween cookies they got to watch a Halloween movie. |
