Fall is here and Halloween is around the corner...

Last year I went to my very first Halloween Haunted House and it was Awesome. I went with my husband and little Brother (one of four little brothers : P ) and we all had a good time. Their thing was shortest to tallest and guess who was shortest, (Yep this gal was) it was still fun and had me wanting to go to more in the future so I started looking already for the 2011 season. I found the following Halloween Haunted House/woods attractions I want to see about going and visiting.


First off Hallows Scream at Busch Gardens (in Williamsburg, VA) (DUH we has seasons passes so it's free aside from gas getting there lol)


Next on the list is Hunt's Club farm (in Virginia Beach, VA) where there is actually 3 creepy attractions to choose from or just go to all three. They got the haunted hay ride, Village of the dead and Field of screams. You can go to each for $22 a piece of buy the unlimited scream wrist band for $25 and see all as many times as you want from 7PM to closing : ) http://www.huntclubfarm.com/newhalloween/index.htm


Next we have Nightmare House (in Virginia Beach, VA) it's $7 per person for this one. there isn't much I can write about this one because there isn't a website for it. I know I have gotten mix reviews of it. Some people say it sucks others say it was better then they expected. Only one way to find out : )


Next is Creepy Hallow Hay ride that goes along with Scream Forest (both in Richmond, VA)
if you go with printable coupon from the website http://www.creepyhollowhayride.com/about.html
for Sept 30th and Oct 1st only if you pay for the hay ride you get to go to scream forest free -that's $15 for both per person : ) they also have a another coupon valid til Oct 31 where you get to go to both for $22 per person.


There is a place called "The Massacre" (in Emporia, VA)

I am so proud of myself

Well as you know I been working on trying to lose all my baby fat and tone up and what not I am proud to say I am only 17 lbs away from being at my goal weight and I am so excited. I can almost fit into my clothes I saved from before getting pregnant with my second child (I liked my body then so that is why I made that weight my goal weight : ) I got myself some new shirts both short sleeved and long and once I get to my goal weight I plan to buy some new bras and panties as well as pants, shorts and skirts for myself. My stuff I have now will either be too big or it's worn out so much it needs to be replaced. I know this might make me sound superficial or selfish and what not but I'm not. I have always put others before me and allowed it to go on so much so I lost myself somewhere along the way which caused me to go into a really bad depression. Now that I had enough and started working out I want to work on other parts of my life that I think need fixing now like my relationships with family and friends. I am so tired of being couped up in my own home I want to get out more, hang out with old and new friends. I don't want to feel trapped anymore by this stupid depression crap and I guess the best way to do so is to surround myself around great people so that's what I'm going to do. I have been unhappy with many things in my life and I am trying to fix them one at a time. I still have that 17 lbs to work off and I know it will be the hardest to work off but I am ready for it. I also still got that tone up part too and I plan to look it up after I write this to see what exercises I can do that will help me tone up the areas I want toned up (Basically my butt, thighs, tummy and waist) I posted pics above of me at my biggest and me at what I am as of today : ) So wish me luck as I journey to new adventures.
