Indianapolis Zoo Boo October 23, 2010

We had a great time at the Indianapolis Zoo Boo this year. I have always wondered what the zoo boo was like and since Andy's family and our family bought membership passes this last spring break we thought we would check it out. Randy and Heather came to and it was a lot of fun spending the day with everyone. Although not much different then a "normal" day at the zoo there was a couple games and trick or treating that isn't obviously part of the normal zoo activities. The kids enjoyed dressing in costume and of course looking at all the animals....but I'm sure the candy and fellowship with family was the best part. Cody was a Pirate and Isabelle was a Southern "Belle".

My beautiful little Southern Belle was not thrilled with her costume before we hardly got started at the zoo. She didn't want to wear the hat cause "she's embarrassed" someone might look at her. She didn't want to carry the umbrella. It was too hot for the long sleeve shirt underneath her costume and the gloves were not comfortable. So by time she was finished she was wearing just he shirt and skirt from her costume and the skirt was ripped from walking on it because it was to long. LOL I guess not a great costume for my little "northern" Belle.

Cody of course enjoyed be a pirate for the day. He didn't mind at all wearing his costume.

I thought it was cute that Cody and Mikaila were both pirates (and no it wasn't planned) cause one year Isabelle and Mason were both pirates too.

Bowling with miniature pumpkins was so much fun. She missed all her pins though. LOL

Cody getting ready to "bowl" down some pins.

Andy and Kristi's little cuties....Maliegh, Mikhi, Mikaila, and Mason.

I don't know but I believe our little pirates are wayyyy cuter then the zoo's pirates....

The kids thought the race car was super neat!

I know I should take more pictures of the animals but I never do. I guess I just like pictures of people better.

This picture was taken before Parker and Olivia got there that is why they are not in the picture.

This picture cracks me up...........

Trick or Treat. Smell my feet. Give me something good to eat.

Austin just wasn't at thrilled as the other kids....no he really just wasn't wanting his picture taken. I think he did enjoy spending some time at the zoo. However, he was a little disappointed we didn't go to the dolphin show....and we had tickets he could have went.........I just didn't know he really wanted to.

Mikaila Ariah

Mason and Parker

Olivia did not want her picture taken at all....so we had to trick her. This is probably the best we could do. LOL

Olivia and Isabelle leaning over to check out the animals. Parker and Cody "racing" the cheetahs.

Cody got to 20ft 8in before the timer went off and the record for the day was 21ft 6 in. So we think Cody did pretty well. He really is a great runner......

All the kids after Maliegh fell off the rock which made the first picture not turn out very well. LOL So we had to take another and of course they just wanted to be done with it. So Mikaila had to hold poor Maliegh and Isabelle thought she had to show Mikhi where his was supposed to look. LOL Oh well kids will be kids.
