We’ve driven past Cherry Hill many times but I’ve never gone. So, we put it on the Stay-cation agenda. During the Fall they close down the water park options and decorate for Halloween and call it SCARY HILL. We paid for the full Day Pass and did several activities. We went with Ryan and Shannon and the girls. We played blaster ball, rock climbed, made our way through the maze, tried not to pee our pants on the trampoline, played in the playground and little kid boats. We rode the haunted hay ride which was pretty cool even though it was in the middle of the day. We ended with a game of miniature golf. The kids ran ahead and golfed with each other so Ben, Ryan, Shannon and I got to play each other. Unfortunately, it was not my best golf. We had to go home at 3:00 and we pushed it til the last minute. Millie zonked as soon as I put her in the van. Another FUN day with cousins!

We took all of the kids to the soccer field and played an intense game where we won 10-9, continuing our winning streak! We watched some BYU football and fell asleep…

Next we pulled up at Ryan’s house! The kids were clueless. They thought we were heading home and then we stopped at a house they didn’t recognize and some neighborhood kids were in the yard so it really threw them off. Eventually, Taylee, Kylee, Marlee, and Brinlee came out and greeted us and the kids realized we were here for some fun. They got excited again when they realized that their pillows and blankets were in the back of the van and we would be staying the night! Ryan’s girls babysat so that Ben, Ryan and I could go to Red Lobster for Endless shrimp. I don’t like shrimp but it was fun just watching them eat. Ryan ate so many shrimp. The coconut shrimp were actually really good.

Shannon was home by the time we got back so we let the kids go at the candy bag and soda while we played Rook Wild Bird Bingo. We stayed up late and the kids stayed up late and we had a good time with my siblings and the kids cousins. The next morning the kids just played and played and had pancakes and found the candy stash again. We played Bingo again and then we loaded up around 11am and drove to Cherry Hill.
