A Spooky Day

Saturday was all about Halloween. Lots of spooky stuff to do the weekend before the big day.

The girls were costumed up at the SNOMOMS Harvest party - Cinderella, Little Ladybug, and Busy Bee. There were games and projects, ice cream, and a parade.

Then we went to Pumpkin Prowl at the zoo. The place was lit with jack-o-lanterns and we took a stroll through Zoomazium which had been transformed into the "Boomazium" haunted house. Marin and Silje loved the ghosts that were everywhere. Ailey said she "had fun, except for the scary part". She couldn't tell me what that "scary part" was though.

We tried to get a picture of the evening, but when it starts with one kid running in the opposite direction ...
The other trying to run in the opposite direction ...
And the big sister refusing flat-out ...
Well, we resorted to pulling them, strapped in, up to a Halloween prop and crossing our fingers they would all look in the same general direction at the same time!
It was a fun night. This next week we're looking forward to a Halloween party at preschool, a costume play-date, and trick-or-treating next weekend!
