Fun with Friends

Cora and I have Magic Mountain passes, and we had special "get a friend in free" tickets loaded to them on certain weekdays.

Because our Fright Fest trip with Kelly and Yass was on such a busy Saturday, we weren't able to go on many rides, and Charlie was very disappointed.

So since we could get friends in free, we went with Jake and Charlie (and my mom and Kelly) on Thursday after school. Char was super excited to try out X2, a rather crazy coaster. He and Cora went on it together...

...and they loved it.

Kelly and I went on Full Throttle with Cora and Char (Jake doesn't like big rides), while all the kids enjoyed Wonder Woman, among other rides. It was a very fun afternoon.

My mom enjoyed seeing her Fright Fest domain in the daylight.

On Friday after school, Sophia had a Halloween-themed Stick Man Party at her house; she formed the Stick Man Club last year.

She had several activities planned, and asked to borrow our corn hole game.

Sophia also had a Halloween quiz, with the kids divided into teams, a raffle for a Menchie's gift card (which Violet won!), and a fun costume game.

Bags of costume items were passed around while music played. When the music stopped, the person holding the bag had to pull out an item to put on. What fun!
