Halloween Phase 2

Holiday Shores Neighborhood Halloween party!
We met friends and family at the Clubhouse in our neighborhood for the Annual Halloween party. Complete with games, entertainment, haunted house and more candy. Last year was our first living here and our neighbor took Jenna and her daughter through the haunted house. Both girls were terrified after and Jenna talked for an hour straight and days later about how she would NEVER do that again...until this year. The first thing she said on the way to the Clubhouse was..."Can I do the haunted house? I'm not scared, do you see these muscles?" I tried to deter that thought but at the end of the night as they are closing down she says with tears in her eyes "I didn't get to do the haunted house!" So off we go as my step-sister takes Ava, I take my older niece and Jenna to the haunted house along with our neighbors. Jenna emerged from the house again vowing to NEVER do that again. I lost Ava's ladybug hat in the midst of picking her up while still holding Kiley's hand (who did great) and listening to our neighbor scream while her mom held her. Definitely an eventful end to the night. Haley stood with us for a few minutes until they turned on the lights and got the hat for us the entire time Jenna was giving us an earful. She told us how she froze and forgot to show those people her muscles and she did not like those people with masks! One even came out mask in tow and we pointed out how he was just a Daddy like hers and it was just a costume. He held it up to show her it wasn't real and she abruptly told him she did NOT like it! Haley carried Jenna to the car with me where Jenna went on to tell us how next year she will tell her Daddy not go to work and he will show his muscles and freak everyone out in that haunted house!
Now on to Phase 3 today of pumpkin patch, pony rides and pumpkin carving. Stay tuned!
