BOO AT THE ZOO


Colt had a vacation day last Friday so we decided to take Cooper to “Boo at the Zoo.”  Cooper loves to go to the zoo and it gave us a chance to break-in our Elmo costume.  Elmo was a big hit!  Several kids walked by and said “Look Mommy it’s Elmo!” One little boy even walked up to Cooper and gave his Elmo head a kiss.  It was adorable.



They had several booths set-up throughout the zoo for the kids.  Cooper was able to get his first tattoo, temporary of course.


Cooper was able to get some practice trick-or-treating in at the candy booth.


They had a Pumpkin Patch set-up where all the kids could pick and paint a pumpkin.  They only had paint pens which Cooper wanted to eat so Daddy was nice enough to paint Cooper’s pumpkin for him.


Cooper loves the drums they have in the "African Forrest."  Every time we get close to them he gets so excited.  He loves beating on them and making music.


Our favorite part of the zoo is the giraffe platform. We LOVE feeding the giraffes and the handlers even gave us extra lettuce.  I think it was because Elmo was so cute!



We can’t wait to head back to the zoo again soon!
