good times!!

So there was this young boy today who came into Prairie Life with his mother and he was not having anything to do with the day care center. He ran screaming through the club trying to get away from whatever evil was lurking through those doors (I'm sure that's what was going through his mind)...

Anyway, that reminded me of the time when I was younger and my family went to Disney World for the first time. We were standing in line for the Haunted Mansion ride and as we got towards the entrance they stopped the line right at our group so we were first in line. After waiting a couple minutes the doors opened up and a large (I was in fourth grade), creepy butler guy walked out and said (in a very eerie, think Dracula style voice), "Your time has come." Now my brother was in about preschool at the time and he was having nothing to do with this butler dude and his large, creepy mansion...and apparently nobody else was either cause he planted his feet, threw out his arms and wasn't going anywhere. Well, we eventually got him into the mansion and on the ride and then it gets to the part where you look in the mirror and one of your group members turns into a ghost. Guess who got turned into a ghost? Yep, my brother.

So yeah...random story but I got a chuckle reliving that little piece of history today.
