Boo at the Zoo

 We went to the Boo at the Zoo tonight to celebrate our Homecoming Day.  The girls got to test out their Halloween costumes,  Since, it was about 75 out, they were a little hot.   Both girls are dressed as monkeys.

 The girls had a great time.  They got to collect candy(which mom had to carry of course)

 They didn't mind the ghosts at all, but didn't like the witches.  Probably because Dora has witches in it

 IT gets dark around 6:30 so it was dark before we left.  Sahsa was really worried about not being home before dark(we always are)

 We went to take the train ride.  Between 5:30 and 6;30, it is non scary.  We had it timed so that we got in line to catch the last train before 6:30.  Just as the train was arriving, Leeza announces that she has to go pee.  THey have potties at the front and the back of the zoo- the train station is in the middle!!  So off we went to the potty.  WE got back in line for the train, but now it was the scary train ride-people jump out of the bushes at the train and they had scary scenes being acted out-nothing extreme unless you are 3.  Leeza started the ride all happy.  I put my arm around her, but she was a big girl and wanted to sit by herself.  Sasha sat in my lap.  The train started off into the dark(the zoo is not open at night so it has very few lights).  after the first person jumped out of the bushes, Leeza and Sasha were in my lap.

 Even though the train ride was scary, everyone had a good time.  There was a tunnel part way through that they had made scary and the girls talked about that all the way home.

 We ended the night by riding the carousel.  Leeza got to ride the big birdy.

Sasha rode the elephant.  It was 8pm by the time we got home so no bath tonight(at Sasha's suggestion) and they were asleep before I could turn the monitor on.  It was a fun day.
