The Great Zoo Halloween IX

We've been going to the Great Zoo Halloween every October since Zachary was nine months old. Kids wear their costumes and get treats at nine different stations. The zoo lines every pathway with lights and hundreds of carved and painted pumpkins. We went tonight for our ninth annual zoo Halloween trip. For the past several years, we've been eating at Logan's Roadhouse after collecting our treats. We can't remember exactly how the Logan's tradition started, but we think it's a good excuse to eat good rolls drenched in butter.
Here is Lauren's recap of the evening: "I liked the candy and the people were nice. I like the candy because it's all sugary. I bet Zachary liked the candy, too. The lights on the zoo train were pretty. I liked the pawprint on the pumpkin. It looked like a jack-o-lantern and it was, maybe. I liked my costume and Zachary's Harry Potter costume. A lot of people recognized him. I was cold there because I didn't have my coat on. I had fun there, though. I loved it. After that, we went to Logan's Roadhouse. I thought it was nice. I like the peanuts at Logan's." So, there you have it from the Lauren the Barbie Mariposa fairy, who insisted we call her "Fairy" while she was in costume. Zachary wanted us to call him Harry, so we spent the evening with our children, Harry and Fairy. :-)
