OCTOBER WEEKEND!

This weekend felt like such a perfect little Autumn weekend!

Saturday morning we went to The Park Cafe. It's always so yummy and we love that place! After breakfast, we were walking back to our car and we saw a yard sale sign that read "Hipster Yard Sale" which we thought was really silly. So of course we detoured our walk to pass by, and I was sooo disappointed. Hipster yard sale actually just meant a totally average, mediocre yard sale. I think I was expecting some cooler stuff but it literally was just a normal yard sale haha. We should have known. 

We also went to pick out a few mini pumpkins for an upcoming photoshoot I'm doing for my Etsy shop! I love fall shoots so much! Now if I could just find time to do all the photoshoots I have planned out in my mind!

We actually tried to go to Lagoon Saturday night for date night, but it was a nightmare! I realized we haven't really been on a Saturday before and I couldn't believe just how packed it was! The lines for even the dumbest rides were crazy long so ultimately we just walked around in Pioneer Village, went through a haunted house, did the bumper cars, and decided to just go home and come back on our usual day: Sunday. 

 

It was seriously night and day from Saturday crowds to Sunday crowds. Nobody goes on Sundays and that's exactly why Jeremy and I LOVE going on Sundays! I'm telling you, not going to church anymore really frees up a whole new day of the weekend! It's a beautiful thing. haha

I just have been reeaally loving Lagoon lately! It's so Halloweeney and it makes me feel like a little kid which is seriously needed after all the time I've been spending working lately. It's so fun to just go act like a little kid with Jeremy for a few hours. 

We sat in the front of the train ride which was fun to watch the little conductor kid who clearly looked like he was very new to the job. I made Jeremy ride the pirate ship with me twice because I forgot just how fun the pirate ship is! We finally went on Terroride since it's been updated which was really fun! It's actually pretty spooky now with all the changes they've made! The line is just always so long for it but yesterday it wasn't as long so we decided to just wait in line for once. It was worth it!

 Oh October, I love you. Please stay for three more months.

WE FINALLY WENT TO FRIGHTMARES!

You guys, it's October!! 
I LOVE October. I love Halloween. I love everything that October brings! Scary movies, candy, haunted houses, crisp autumn air, pumpkins, corn mazes, pumpkin patches, apple cider, sweater weather, caramel apples, & Frightmares at Lagoon!

Last night we went to Lagoon for Frightmares and it was so much fun! Lagoon is already super fun but it's SO much cuter with all the Halloween decorations everywhere and employees in costumes walking around! 
They have a lot of Halloween shows and haunted houses set up throughout the park which all seem fun! The lines were super long for all the haunted houses so we didn't go through any this time, but the nice thing is all those long lines made all the lines for the rides super short!  

They seriously had Halloween decorations everywhere! I kept being amazed by how many decorations there were throughout the park. There are pumpkins, spiderwebs, little wooden crosses, and gravestones everywhere you look! It's all so fun and cute! We didn't realize Pioneer Village closed an hour before the rest of the park so we didn't get a chance to walk through there but I'm really excited to do that next weekend!

 

They also had a lot of cute little photo areas throughout the park like these cutey skeletons! They had a funny electric chair one that you could sit in for a photo near Cannibal, and a vertical standing wooden coffin you could get inside of. I just love how much effort they put into transforming the park into Halloween! When it gets closer to Halloween, I want to go dressed up in costume for funsies! Maybe I'll wear my Jack Sparrow costume or my skeleton one! 

  
Going to Frightmares was seriously the perfect way to start October! It made me so excited for this month and I can't wait to do all the fall things! We were such giddy little kids last night and it was just so much fun!

Oh I just can't wait to go back again this weekend! I asked Jeremy if we can go back every weekend until Halloween and he happily agreed! I can't wait to go back and go to a couple of the haunted houses too! 

Oh, how I love you October. :)
