Fall Break- Scarecrows

Another day of Fall Break, Jeremy and Jr. worked on a project for school while I took the other kids to the Scarecrow Festival at Ashton Gardens at Thanksgiving Point.
Again they had an I Spy scarecrow scene.

They also had scarecrows advertising Dia de Los Muertos again (Jeremy again built sculptures for the event).

We found Waldo... twice.

We even saw One-Eyed Willy from the movie, Goonies.  My kids haven't seen that movie, but I just had to take a picture to show Jeremy.  One-Eyed Willy even had the key hanging from his neck.

At one point there was a scarecrow sitting on the edge of a bench with the sign saying, "Take a Seat."  The kids very nicely sat and looked scared for me to take a picture.

The last scarecrow we saw made us laugh.  It had a sign saying, "Harry Potter (under his cloak of invisibility)," with no scarecrow to be seen.  Of course not because he's invisible.

On the way out, the kids got on a bench to rest for a bit.  I mentioned that the scarecrow festival must have taken a lot out of them so I told them to say, "That Scarecrow Festival took a lot out of us." 

After that, almost every bench we came to, Jr. Jr. and Lucky would stop and say, "That scarecrow festival took a lot out of us."  We stopped at a lot of benches and they had a lot of fun saying those words.

 We had fun but that Scarecrow Festival took a lot out of us.
