Boo in the Zoo 2009

Every year since Emily was born, with the exception of the year I was very pregnant with the twins, we have been going to Boo in the Zoo. It is always a lot of fun and this year was no exception. After nap time on Sunday afternoon we snacked and dressed the kids and headed to the Zoo in order to be there for the opening at 4:00. When we arrived it was already starting to get busy so we parked and headed to the line. Soon after we arrived Daddy met us and the line started moving.

Once we had gotten our bag and were in the Zoo the kids were ready to Trick or Treat. The little ones did not really remember what we were talking about until the first candy station when it came back like it was yesterday, but Emily knew right away what was happening. What a difference each year makes =) After we went through the first station, surprisingly it was Ansley who was dying to eat some candy (really chocolate). She started on her kit kat as we progressed, but Emily and Bailey were all about heading to the next one. At the next one they were giving back scratchers. Although Ansley was already on "the hunt" for more candy, Bailey was totally about her "scratch". Emily liked it to, but she was more about moving on. We wound our way to the top of the Zoo where we sat for a minute to give the kids a drink. By that time Ansley had eaten several pieces of candy/chocolate (you are only a kid once =) ) and Emily and Bailey were ready for a first piece. After a small taste they were ready to make our way through the other half.

After making it to the end we headed out to the park to play for a little bit before heading home for dinner.
