BOO at the Zoo and Halloween

Saturday October 29th, we loaded the kids up and headed to BOO at the ZOO.  We go every year and LOVE it!  Lily had a great time going around and collecting candy, coloring books, and TOOTHBRUSHES!  She is a silly girl for sure!  Her favorite thing she got was the TWO toothbrushes!  She likes the candy, but gets super excited when she gets a toothbrush!  - Fun story about that...On Sunday she was supposed to be taking a nap.  TJ went to check on her and where did we find her, in the bathroom brushing her teeth!  That night I heard her when she was supposed to be sleeping, and what do you think I find, Lily in her bed with her toothpaste!  She is a girl who loves to take care of her teeth!  That makes one happy Mama!  -
 This year Logan was a dinosaur, AKA a protective dragon!  Lily thought he looked like a dragon and since we don't have scary dragons at our house, Lily dubbed Logan a protective dragon!  I love her creativity!
 Lily was, and still is, our Lily Princess.  We went back and forth between who she wanted to be and we ended with a Lily princess!  That is better than a Disney princess anyways!
 TJ and I were Vampires.  If people mentioned that we were scary Lily would tell them that we weren't scary, we just had costumes on!  That was all her too! 

 While we were going around the Zoo, we stopped at the Tigers and I am glad we did!  They had 4 cubs last year and so this year they are big and PLAYFUL!  It was fun to watch them play with each other!


 Lily won a free meal from Denny's when she spun the wheel!

 TJ and the kids were at the Zoo from 9-3!  I left for a few hours for a baby shower just down the street.  So by the time we headed home, Lily was a little tired!  I just love the way she fell asleep!  I have to say this is one of my all time favorite pictures of her!

On Halloween, we started the fun at the Ward Trunk or Treat.  Lily was loving all the treats!  After we made the circle, we headed out to some of our friends houses to let Lily Trick or Treat the old fashioned way!  She had a great time walking around the neighborhood with Dad and handing out candy when she got home!  It was a great night!  She has already asked me when the next Halloween will be.  I told her next year.  She was a little sad, but then I told her that we would have Thanksgiving and Christmas next and she was fine! 

 At the Trunk or Treat, Logan made a hall as well!  He was just too cute that people had to give him candy!
 We invited our great friends to come with us!  A witch, Princess Leia and Lily Princess!
