Our Halloween Celebrations

Our Halloween celebrations started with our annual trip to Boo at the Zoo.  The kids had a great time filling their bags with lots of great treats!  The morning was a bit chilly but after a few hours we were able to take off our coats and enjoy the day. Because the morning was a little chilly, the Zoo wasn't as crowded which meant we didn't have to stand in line at all to get candy!  Once it warmed up, the Zoo was really busy!

 We met up with a friend and had a great time!  Buzz joined the fun and scored big!

 Taking a sucker break!  Logan had four suckers in his hands at one time!  He would pull his cuteness out and end up with extra candy!  I was holding his bag and yet his hands seemed to keep full!  He was a happy little man until the candy high came down!


 Riding the royal carriage! 
 Usually we dress up with the kids, this year I was pretty busy and so we had to rush around the house the morning of to find something to wear.  TJ was a scout leader! and I was a pumpkin!  (Lily took our picture!  She is getting pretty good at taking pictures!)
 Here is Logan's candy crash.  He had a sit down strike which ended with a nap in the wagon!



 After lunch and a nap, Logan was ready to play again!  Toyota sponsored Boo at the Zoo and they had a huge area with games and crafts that the kids enjoyed!


Our second dose of Halloween fun was Lily's preschool party!  She was so excited that we got to bring a game for her class to play.  She came home over sugared and super happy!

The last Halloween fun we had was trick-or-treating on Halloween.  That morning I went to exchange Lily's costume because she had some seams coming undone.  I thought we would go home with another Cinderella, but Lily insisted on getting a Brave costume.  She told me that her favorite princesses were Merida and Pocahontas and that she was okay with not having a Cinderella costume anymore. 
 The kids on Halloween, Roo and Merida!



Daddy took them out around the neighborhood.  After Logan got tired, they came home and I put Logan to bed while Lily and Daddy drove around to some of our friends houses that live further away.  We had such a great time celebrating Halloween!  The kids had a great time and got way too much candy!  Now we are looking forward to Thanksgiving and family coming to town!
