Boo at the Zoo
-------
Prior to Nina's arrival on Saturday..we decided since Daddy had a rare day off and it was a gorgeous day--we would venture out and take the boys to "Boo at the Zoo"....our last Zoo experience was not the greatest...so Mommy had mixed feelings but decided to give it another try...(Hey-last time it was only 100 degrees and I was 9 months pregnant!!) We had a Magnificant Day!!! It has been too cold here lately and we ALL needed to get out!
It was perfect and Preston and Ashten were both on their best behaviour--hence they both missed nap time...and Mommy and Daddy were okay with that! The Zoo was totally decked out with Halloween decorations, trick or treat booths, and special shows...
Preston loved getting a chance to "trick-or-treat" at the different booths within the zoo...why wouldn't he...he loved wearing the costume...and getting candy!!! It was a good way to get him used to going up and asking for candy and saying the all important--Thank you!
His favorite animal he claims was the Hippo...but all day long he only talked about wanting to see the Tigers. I really thought there were a lot more animals out and about this day than last...perhaps it was just all in my head because I really enjoyed the day much more than last time!

The rhino, zebra's and giraffe's here were also pretty funny and active....it was probably Mommy and Daddy's favorite part of the day...
Little Ashten also really seemed to enjoy the day out for a stroller ride...he didn't wear his full costume...only his "ghost" shirt because it was too nice of a day...doesn't he just look "spooktacular" too! This was by far one of the best days we had as a family of four thus far...we couldn't have asked for better behaved boys...and a great time was had by all...and the day was only going to get better bc when we got home....Nina was there!
