Halloween was Spooktacular!

This Halloween we decided to go the the hogal zoo's fright night. It was so cold and dark, but worth every minute. You show up to the zoo about 7 o'clock when its pretty dark. And a tour guides, dressed in costume of course, takes you around the zoo, giving you animal and zoo facts. But, the fun twist is every story has a Halloween or spooky twist to it. Such as... "Now who wants to go see our cyclopes?, We keep it a secret and only show the special ghosts and goblins who come to the zoo at night!" Then on the way to this special creature the host tells all kinds of facts about the animal and the place it lives. Turns out the cyclopes is a giant elephant skull, which has a hole right in the middle indicating one eye. It was so much fun and Shilo and Chase were sure to be right up front every time. Chase was so cute asking the guides every little question he could think of. And the main guide even recognized what his costume was, he was pretty impressed. Shilo was very cute leading the way with her cell phone light. And didn't notice until the very end that a certain young man in the group was very taken by her, and made sure he could see her at all times. She acted disgusted and put out, but I thought it was kinda cute! The whole tour ended at an outdoor theater with a heater, and "Spiderella" presented a show about snakes, bugs, and other small animals, which the kids could touch after. The whole night was a lot of fun!Chase's 3rd Grade Halloween Parade!!!!
