Barnyard Boo

Thanksgiving Point has some pretty fun activities for Halloween. We went to Farm Country for Barnyard Boo. The kids and their friends had a lot of fun doing all the activities that were available. There are a lot of pictures, but the last 3 pictures have a story to them...

Cookies...
Crafts...
Cheesy smiles...
Croquet...
Pony rides...
Cowboys...
Bowling...
Cute family in cutout pumpkins...
Tattoos...
Sleepy Hollow carriage ride...
and fear of the Headless Horseman!!!
During the Sleepy Hollow carriage ride, we saw the Headless Horseman. We all thought it was a statue. When it started moving, we figured it was a dummy on the horse, then it started following us trying to reach for our heads. At that point, the kids were super freaked and Kailee was almost in tears. When we got off, they started laughing about it. 5 minutes later, he started making its way up to us. Of course, Kailee was bawling her eyes out. Fear of losing her head, I guess. We had to let her know it was just a costume. After that, she tried to convince us she wasn't scared whatsoever, but would NEVER go on the ride again. I love being scared at Halloween time!

We stopped at Thanksgiving Point when we were in Utah last year. Fun place. Wish they had something like that here.

Funny how kids can get freaked out so easily. Hunter freaks out at nearly everything. Kailee seems pretty smart to try to convince you guys she wasn't scared. We love Halloween too...so much fun!
