They started out by sitting and listening to a Halloween story told by a pirate. Then they were allowed to see the rest on their own. They were given a little paper with pictures of different Halloween items on it, that they could look for as they walked around. A lot of the decorations were pirate-themed, but not all of them. Here's Megan as a ghost.
There was a haystack maze that the kids could walk through. Megan couldn't get out fast enough because she did not like the smell of damp hay and was making the funniest faces about it. Here are Ainsley and Megan checking out some of the pumpkins.
Lots of cousins: Charlie the werewolf, Megan the ghost, Ainsley the witch, and Clara as Frankenstein.
This tractor was a big hit. All the kids enjoyed sitting on it and pretending to drive.
I tried and tried to get Peter to look at the camera, but he was so fascinated by the pieces of straw, that I couldn't get him to acknowledge me.
He looks a little like a farmer here, chewing on a piece of straw. Don't really like to think about that being in his mouth, but oh well, the damage is done.
Here he is sitting in front of the big measuring stick. If we ever go back, I can see how much he's grown - as long as he's sitting down I guess.
And Megan by the measuring stick.
At the end the kids could choose a pumpkin to take home - the most exciting part of all.
This was a fun little trip but it is definitely geared toward the younger crowd. The maze isn't even 4 feet tall so any one over about the age of 6 would be able to see exactly where they needed to go. Still, for $2.50 there was plenty for the kids to see and do. There was also a big pirate ship they could climb on which most of the kids seemed to enjoy but Megan wanted nothing to do with. Although, really she would have been happy with just the pumpkin.

Wow you have blogged this already? Impressive. It was fun to see you guys there, even if we didn't get to talk to you. I agree the maze was kind of gross smelling.
That picture of Megan with the pumpkin is so so darling. It looks like a ton of fun.
