Boo at the Zoo

Hogle Zoo does this Boo at the Zoo thing. Kids dress up in their Halloween costumes and get to trick-or-treat throughout the zoo from lots of businesses AND see the animals! What a treat! We went with Mike's sister's family and had a great time. Isabelle was adorable in her little pumpkin fairy costume and the top even covers up her hair (my next post). Isabelle was a pro at the "Trick-or-treat" once she realized they gave her candy for saying it and she even said thank you most of the time.



One business was Meadow Gold and had egg nog samples. Isabelle had an awesome milk mustache and the canvas in the back was too cute to pass up. As we were passing at the end, they were giving away 1/2 gallons so they could go home. Mike was happy to get some eggnog.


I never did get a picture with everyone in it. This was as close as we got.


It did rain while we were there. We bundled up and stayed warm and mostly dry. Isabelle had been talking about the zoo for about 2 weeks now. There were lots of babies born this summer and she wanted to see them all again. We made sure to get the animals in too.


We have a pass with Mike's family, so we've gotten to go to the zoo a lot this year. It's been a really fun thing and we've loved getting to go often. Mike has never been able to go, until this trip. The zoo with Mike is a much different experience. Instead of coming home talking about the mommies and babies, Isabelle's talking about monkey poop...gotta love dads!
