Harvest Party and Zoo Boo Bash

We really had a low-key week, but this weekend we had several things going on. We have a small zoo not far from our house and they have a fall "Zoo Boo Bash" at the end of October. We went and they had little stations for the kids to get fun treats. The kids really enjoyed it. There was even a hayride, of sorts. It was indeed a hayride, it just was around the parking lot of the zoo rather than over a hilly farm. :) We will take what we can get.

The hayride

Outside the Elephant area (notice the shorts for the BRRR! cold fall weather! OK, not really- it has been in the 90's this week!)

This is actually a picture of Timothy holding his pumpkin fan in the face hole. Such a funny guy. :)

Then last night, we went to a Harvest Party at a church in the area. It was fun. It is a nice alternative to Halloween and the kids enjoy playing all the games and hanging out with their friends. They had lots of different games with lots and lots of candy for prizes. We filled up 2 mixing bowls with all the candy they got!

The kids before the Harvest Party Started

Anna LOVED the chose a duck game. You would pick a duck and the number on the bottom told how many pieces of candy you would get. She didn't care about the candy (except for the lollipop in her mouth), but she did love the ducks!

Josh and Sarah both won the cake walk - back to back. They chose Josh's number and then the very next time was Sarah's number! Josh was sweet and shared his cake with his friend.
