Zoo Boo

Ok this post is a little late, but, better late then never!! I like so many other Mommy's use this as my baby book, so as long as it makes it out of my brain I am happy!

Anywho...We had planned not to go to Zoo Boo because we found out that even though we were National Zoo Members there was still going to be a significant cost. So we just quietly let that go. However on Sunday morning everyone was up bright and early, we were watching "Mommy's cartoons" (- anything that isn't a real cartoon in Lilyese)and we saw that the Baltimore Zoo was offering the same event. We sat and watched the segment and at the end they said that it was FREE with admission on Zoo Membership. Well our ears perked right up because our National Zoo membership gets us unto the Baltimore Zoo as well!

We then decided that we should go and that it would be a ton of fun. So we got the girls dressed in their costumes and off we went. We did ask Lily if she wanted to go to the Zoo after we decided that we were going to go, she let out a huge wahoo, and then in her most excited voice said "let's go guys, come on!"

When we got there it was already packed! We made it through with our pass and we went to find the Zoo Boo area. It was all in the woods, so we parked the stroller and let Rdette walk too! They had it set up so that the kids could trick or treat at the different vendors. So we walked from booth to booth. Lily still is getting the hang of the trick or treat thing so kept wanting to give the people her candy! Once we had our fill of trick or treating we headed over to the main zoo!

Lily insisted that we see the Elephants. We got there just as they were enjoying a pumpkin treat! It was really awesome to see how powerful they are. After the Elephants we stopped for lunch, and headed back to the van. Rdette could hang... she knocked out and before we got there.

It was really a great day. I am so glad that we got to go.
