I've had many friends say, 'You do so many fun things, how do you know about them all?' or 'Let me know when you hear about something fun happening'
So I created a blog with the fun things that I hear about and do. Just click on a label...like 'Halloween 2015' and you will see Halloween events or click on 'Free' to see free events.
Also, for the 'Reviews' I am giving my honest opinion...I do not receive free tickets to places or events.
Enjoy!

I will be updating with reminders to sign up for certain events so make sure you Follow the blog.

Rowley's Red Barn is our FAVORITE place to stop for a treat when we are down south. If you love fountain drinks where they mix the syrup they have those and they are so yummy. The ice cream is fantastic too. Oh, and you have to try their apple juice...especially if they have their cherry apple....I am dying a little as I type this - it is that good!

They have some fun fall activities for families...$8/person or $35/for a family of 5. Under age 2 are free. And with your paid admission you can buy a pumpkin of ANY size for $3.

Hay RidesAdmission includes a hayride to the “Back Forty”, the corn maze, the pumpkin patch, the apple cannons, The giant slides, the race tractors, the hay pyramid, the tractor train, giant sand box, and bin maze.  Children under the age of two are free for the ride and all activities

Wheeler Farm Pumpkin Days and Haybale Maze

Wheeler Farm is one of our favorite places to go because it is so close to where we live. Each October they do a little fall Pumpkin festival. There are kid friendly mazes, wagon rides and your price includes a pumpkin to take home.

We have never encountered a large crown and everything is perfectly non-scary fun for ages 8 and under.

October 2-31 price is $9 for 2 and older, which includes unlimited mazes, 1 wagon ride and a pumpkin. You can add on additional wagon rides or their cow train rides for a few more dollars.



My recommendation is to go on a Tuesday night...the price is $2/off per person.

If you get to the farm before it gets dark, take a walk around and see the animals.

Wheeler Farm is in Murray
6351 South 900 East





Here is a link for more information

They do have a Halloween Dog Costume contest...if interested check out their site!

Cornbelly's Opens Oct 2!



For all of you parents who like a deal, Cornbelly's is offering $3 off tickets purchased before October 1st.

Cornbelly's is located North of the Farm at Thanksgiving Point and they have tons of things for children to do. My kids favorite at age 2-4 were the giant areas full of dried corn to play in (picture a giant sand box of corn). They also like the floating pillows, corn maze, the giant rocking chair and smores, rockwall, pumpkin princess...just to name a few things.

There are so many things to do there...you should definitely check it out if you haven't been. Ages 2 and under are free and Thanksgiving Point members receive 25% off (note that there is a limit to how many tickets you can purchase with your membership see their site before you go).

It is that time of year.....Witches are out at Gardner Village

We love the Witches at Gardner Village. Every year we hunt down our favorites as the start to our Halloween season - usually we go in September to avoid the crowds and enjoy the nice weather - and mostly because we are so darn excited for Halloween. Going is FREE. Unless you go on a night where you need to pay for parking or if you do any of the paid events.

Some things to know for this year...if you are going for Witches Nite Out on Oct 9-10 or 23-24 or attending the Wee Witches Weekend the 15-17 there will be a $5/car parking fee.

They offer a scavenger hunt to find the witches...when you are done you can turn it into Naborhood Bakery and buy chocolate chip cookies for only $0.50...the link to the scavenger hunt is http://www.gardnervillage.com/witch-scavenger-hunt

This year they are having Six Hags Witches adventure for $6/person you jump on a giant pillow, climb thru spider webs, crawl thur the Maze of Mayhem or take a dip in the Candy Corn Pool. I'm sure your kids will want to try these out.

And as always they have the petting zoo $5 and pony rides $5.

Gardner Village is located 1100 West 7800 South in West Jordan. More info can be found on their website below:
