The Mummy


Not too long ago, ancient Egyptian toddler Madison is revived when an archaeological expedition finds ...her mummy! One of the archaeologists, despite a warning, recklessly reads a very ancient life-giving spell - gasp! The Mummy lunges forward and escapes from the archaeologists, taking with her the Scroll of Kai-Lan. Alas, now she prowls Cairo, lurking in the shadows...

Beware of the Revenge of the Mummy!



Madison dressed up as Minnie Mouse again, and went with Mommy and Daddy to Kelly's annual Halloween party up in White County, where fingers were once again on the menu!


So were pumpkins and, from what I hear, pig's ears. But Madison didn't get to see much of the "freaky" food. It was all set up in a spooky lab for the older kids - at least the ones older than Madison. Meanwhile, she and all the others had a blast in the Bouncy Tottington Hall. This is Mommy and Daddy's word for one of those large inflatable things that you jump up and down in.

One thing on the activity list was a "make your own mummy game," featuring many rolls of toilet paper. Kids wrapped each other up, just like they used to do in ye old Egyptian days. Don't worry: no organs were removed.

The food was plentiful and good, and so was the company: a lot of people showed up to have fun outside. Eventually, a bonfire was lit - which attracted all of us because it was getting downright cold outside.

But soon it was time to head home. Madison definitely didn't want to go home yet, which meant she was having a great time. But it was late and she was getting quite tired, so we hopped in the car after wishing everyone a good night. It was a fun time again - something I'm sure we'll keep doing year after year, just as long we don't run into... the Mummy!!
