Halloween Happenings

(Sorry. This is going to be a bit long because I haven't blogged in a while and I want to share our Halloween Happenings with you.)

Okay, so I have never been a big fan of haunted houses and things like that. I am a chicken. I will admit it. But, the American West Heritage Center here in Logan is doing a fall festival thing and we decided to go to it because it sounded fun and there's not a huge variety of things to do on a Friday night around here. They had a haunted hollow thing (which I was not even interested in). They also had some fun stuff for kids that Dylan loved. They also had a "Charlotte's Web" themed corn maze. I've always said that I would never go to a corn maze because I would feel claustrophobic. Well, we decided to try it anyway. It was just starting to get dark but I didn't think it would take very long to get through it. Well, I found out that I was right. I hate corn mazes! I did feel very claustrophobic. Not to mention I am almost eight months pregnant, needed to go to the bathroom and we were trying to push a stroller through the dirt paths. I am just grateful that Spencer was there because he's the one who led the way and got us out eventually. It felt like hours but I'm sure it was only about a half hour. I probably would have curled up and cried and waited til someone found me if he hadn't been there. It seems I have a horrible sense of direction. Anyway, now I know for sure that I do not like corn mazes and I will never attempt one again. (By the way, Spencer had never been to one either. When we were done, I asked him if he liked it and he said, "Not with a pregnant wife and a two-year-old." I don't blame him one bit).

The other thing we did was a Pumpkin Walk North Logan City hosts a thing at the park where people have carved elaborate pumpkins. They also make displays out of pumpkins. There were some really creative displays and pumpkins. Here are a few pictures of it. (There were also some cute cutout things that the kids could get their pictures taken in. Spencer thought he fell in the category of "kid" also).

For Halloween, we went trick or treating at my sister's house so Dylan could go with his cousins. He had so much fun! He still says "trick or treat" randomly. I guess he's hoping to get more candy. He dressed as Tigger and I was Pooh I figured I fit the part with my gigantic stomach. Anyway, it was a fun Halloween season. I love the fall and I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving next, even though Wal-Mart is already playing Christmas music on their speakers.
