Goblin Jamboree

It is time for Goblins at the Bay Area Discovery Museum. The drive didn't take quite as long as we had planned for, so while we were waiting for the park to open, we had time for a picture with an awesome background.

Alex and Zachy made a beeline for the jumpy house, but Mady decided to mix up a special potion.

Once she had all of the ingredients in her cauldron, she was given the final, magic spell.

When the boys were younger, the gravel pit was always their favorite. Some things never change!

Parking lot train rides. This ride was in the morning, just before the rain started.

And this ride was at the end of the afternoon, after the rain.

Mady really enjoyed riding the pony. She even wanted to wait in line for a second ride.

But before her second ride, she asked her brothers to join her.

Even though it was drizzly for most of the day, everyone had a lot of fun. We played in the glow in the dark train room, jumpy houses, tug boat, gravel pit, hiked up to the giant bell, listened to Jimbo Trout (and bought his CD, Mady's new favorite car music) and played lots of Halloween carnival games. On the way out, we stopped for cotton candy, but it was so humid that it was melting faster than the kids could eat it. So Sticky!
