Witches House

When we lived in Philadelphia we would take the boys on a hayride to the witches' house.  The witches would give them cookies.  Ever since Makett saw his first autumn leaf he's been asking if there was a witches' house in Utah.  I googled it and was excited to find that Gardner village had a hay ride to, not just a witches' house, but to a witches' village.
Our friends, Dawson, Everest, Ashley and Kapri came with us.  The hayride part was great...
We got to the much anticipated witches house village, I was glad to see the witches were dressed cute and chic, not scary and morbid.
 They taught us the monster mash, how to get moon dust to make broom's fly, and how to make a potion that would get you king size candy bars trick or treating.

All was well, until after the potion.  I didn't realize Kett had been scared, but all at once he started crying, the deep, gut, can't breathe sobs that usually take a long time to work up to.  I felt so bad!  Makett had been the most excited for the witches house!  I even let him get candy from the candy machine to try and sweeten the experience for him, but he still says he doesn't ever want to go back :(  Darn!
