Haunted House!

We've heard lots of good things about the Children's Museum's Haunted House, so we decided to take the kids this week, since Bo has this week off.

We went during the "lights on" time so that the kids wouldn't be scared. They had so much fun and weren't the least bit scared. I think that the workers walking around talking to the kids and handing them candy had something to do with it not being scary. If it were dark, I think it would be another story. Anyways... it was really cool and very detailed. They had it really decorated. It was fun to go around and look at all the things.

The theme was that these two vampires, Vic and Viv, went on vacation, and these were the sights they saw. It makes sense when you see the pictures. We "visited" New Gorleans, Dead Valley, Horrorwood, Count Rushmore, and some other places I can't remember. Meg and I had a fun time being "scared" at the giant bugs. Derrick showed no expression whatsoever. Bo and Carter just loved it all.

It was a fun family activity. We love Halloween!

I was trying to get Derrick inside the mouth. I love that he's just looking at it like its no big deal, even though there are skeletons in blood on the inside of that thing.

I love that Derrick is reaching for the spider's leg.





After the Haunted House we decided to go upstairs in the museum and end the day with a ride on the carousel.

Looks like you guys are having fun at your house! Is Bo's schedule any better? That's nice to have some time off!

By the way I wanted to tell you that the other day Miyah was having trouble seeing out of our car window to see what Jer was talking about and she said something like, "We need to get a big car like Megan and Carter. Our car is too small." We thought it was really funny.
