This past weekend our family visited Gardner Village in West Jordan, Utah to the see their annual display of witches.

There’s Emma getting cozy with a witch.  She decided to sit for a spell.  (I know, I know, I couldn’t help myself.)

Even the witches can’t hang up their phones.  At least she wasn’t flying and texting, like this next witch.

She was my son’s favorite this year. You can’t see her eyes from this angle, but they look like cartoon concussion eyes, you know the spiral.

I say his favorite this year, because his annual favorite, “Witchy Poo” was nowhere to be found.  She was a witch sitting in an outhouse reading the newspaper.  Do you see why she appealed to my 3rd grade boy?  She always sent Ben into a fit of laughter. We looked all over for Witchy Poo and concluded she wasn’t around this year.  Maybe she finally discovered a good laxative potion.  But we’lll miss her, especially Ben.

My husband’s favorite was still around.  She is fishing with dynamite.  Something about that really appeals to him.  Is it the fishing?  Or the dynamite?  Or both?

We look forward to seeing the witches every year.   And one of the best parts of visiting the Gardner Village Witches is that it’s free.  It doesn’t get more “Make it Do” than that.

I hope you and your family can find your way to a wonderful free activity this Halloween.
