Frightmares

Aside from the gorgeous leaves and beautiful weather, one of the best parts of October in Utah is Frightmares. Truthfully, unless you go to the Haunted Houses (which we don't....) it isn't any different than regular Lagoon, except for it's much less busy! And the decorations and shows are all Halloweeny and fun! We've taken girls the past 2 years and loved it. I think it's going to officially be a tradition now. Emery loved it last year, but to say she loved it this year would be an understatement. She finally officially reached 36" (BARELY) She truthfully is probably still 35.5", but they still let her on the rides. Which I was really glad about. So she got to do a lot more than in the past. 

The first thing they ran to though was the Merry Go Round though, which there isn't a height requirement on. Emery loved it as usual, Macie not so much. She screamed on the first two things my mom put her on. So they ended up just sitting in this sleigh. She was much happier in there. 

The rest of the night we just bounced from ride to ride to ride letting Emery just choose what she wanted to do. 

Macie could do much, but she was content just walking around and being held. 

They did both get to do the Trick or Treating which they thought was pretty cool.

The highlight was Macie's night was the train ride. She loved having her own seat and watching all of the animals. 

This ride right here was the highlight of our night. It all started actually with the ride before this one. There are two rides that are almost identical, the LadyBug one and then this Dinosaur Egg one. One starts at the bottom and shoots you up and goes up and down, and the other starts at the top and drops you down fast and then goes up and down. Jake and I first took Emery on the LadyBug one thinking that it would end in tears and screaming. Because on the bigger adult version of these at Lagoo (The Rocket) I am TERRIFIED. But she LOVED it. I couldn't believe it. Even I was a little scared on it, but not her. She laughed through the whole thing and was so happy. So as soon as she got off she ran to papa and asked if he would take her on the egg one. And as you can see it did not disappoint ;) She told us as soon as we got in the car that night that she had a "perfect day". That makes it all worth it. She is the sweetest.
