"This is the place" Halloween
Yesterday we took Noah to "This is the place" Utah state park. It was alot of fun. And it not only presented a good oppurtunity for us to enjoy the upcoming holiday, but we were also able to learn a little bit more about the early pioneers who settled Salt Lake City. They had booth's set up in different locations where the kids could do different crafts. None of which peaked Noah's interest. He was more interested in the candy (which the park was handing out to trick-or-treaters). They invited parents to bring their children dressed in costumes, which ended up being alot of fun. Noah initially had decided that he wanted to go dressed as a cowboy/pirate, but Jennifer with her never ending foresight thought it best to bring the Batman costume, for the "just in case" back up plan. As it turned out, we needed the back up plan. After walking through a couple of the old buildings and taking a train ride, we headed over to see the animals. Noah was able to take a pony ride, which lasted about 30 seconds. At least Jen got a couple of good pictures. We then let Noah run free with the dangerous baby goats and lambs (the horns actually were kind of scary). He was sure to correct a girl who looked to be about his same age, that the animal she was calling a goat, was in fact a sheep. He was right!!! He got a little nervous around the pigs but managed to pull off a smile for the camera.
