Goblins in the Garden

Last weekend, Ainsley and I checked out Goblins in the Garden at The Holden Arboretum. Everyone was invited to come in costume, and Ainsley was so excited for the debut of her Mickey Mouse costume (she keeps asking when she can be Mickey Mouse again). 

They did a fantastic job with Halloween/harvest activities for the whole family, including a wagon ride, crafts, food, and of course, trick or treat!

The actual Goblins in the Garden trick or treat stations were so creative and well done. Some were scary, some were fun. One was a graveyard that showed how long it takes various items to decompose - it promoted recycling. So clever!

Helga's Haberdashery & Emporium - Love it!
