OTS Parade and First Haunted House with Godfather Ty

Friday night we made mini pies for the 4H booth.  Tatiana really figured out how to get the pie crust in the mini-pie tins.  

Saturday morning was the Old-Time Saturday parade.  Tatiana was in the dance float.  We enjoy the parade.  Scotland and I enjoy the relaxed time to chat just the two of us. 



















We got home from the parade and Tatiana and I crawled into the big bed to read books. Tatiana is reading a Captain Underpants book. 

Tatiana did a performance Saturday afternoon for the festival.   This is her and one of the other little girls waiting for it to start.  There was a frontier-era gun-battle reenactment going on in the park.  

Saturday evening, we met Godfather Ty at a big Haunted House in Plano.   We got there early so that Scotland could shop at a hardware store.  It took much less time than he thought it would so we got there early.  Tatiana had run to meet him and give him a hug when she saw him. 

This is in line for the haunted house.   They do a little show to set the theme for the house.   It was a little loud.  She is wearing her Halloween dress and her Halloween ears.  She is carrying her stuffie that is a striped cat. 

We had lots of fun at the Haunted House.   She clung to her Daddy.   I stayed behind them to make sure no one scared her from behind.  Ty went first and pointed neat stuff out.   At first she had wanted to go through with her eyes closed.  Her daddy convinced her that what was in her head was much worse and then he pointed out how they did the scary thing that she saw first when she opened her eyes.   In the second haunted house, there was a different theme.  Tatiana declared that to be scarier.   But, it had some funny moments in it.  At one point there were two 'windows' with curtains on them.  Someone popped out of the first window and said, "Scary curtain" while fluttering it.  The second person said, "Scary noises" while fluttering their curtain. 

We went to a Chinese buffet nearby.   We talked and talked.   We weren't the last ones to leave, there was one other table.  But, they were definitely giving us hints to leave.  Ty had them get a photo of us.
