Zoo Boo

What a busy week it has been, fortunately Dan had a few days off, which is why we jam packed everything into one week.

Wednesday we had appointments super early to get flu shots, Wednesday afternoon Logan got his hair cut.

Thursday was a trip to the mall for some early Christmas shopping.

Friday Logan had his first dentist appointment. The dentist said that everything looks good and his is happy with Logan mouth. After the dentist it was a quick trip to Sams Club for some Halloween candy and other bulk items. Then home for a quick nap, after nap was a stop at our early voting center then grocery shopping. Whew! But that wasn't the end to our busy week.

Saturday was the Zoo Boo. It's an event that the zoo holds every year, where children get to get dressed up and trick or treat around the zoo. Most animal exhibits have a table sponsored by a local business that give away candy and other items to the kids and coupons and brochures to the parents. State Farm was giving the kids footballs and coloring books, and while we were in line for our coloring books Logan tired to put as many footballs as would fit in his bucket. After explaining that he only got to keep 1 he put the rest back. Molina Health care gave us toothbrushes, McDonald's gave us coupons for free ice cream just for a few examples. Logan also got a lot of candy, more than we probably need.

Logan's tiger costume from last year still fit so he went as a tiger for the 2nd year. Though this will be the last year since the pants were getting a little short.

We had fun at the zoo and saw lots of animals. The zoo keepers had decorated all the animal houses with Halloween decor and made all the animals paper mache balls, the monkeys were eating theirs when we got there. We made it home just in time for a nap.
