Boo at the Zoo

This afternoon the kids put on their costumes and we went to Boo at the Zoo. The kids trick-or-treated, went on a hay ride, and walked around to visit our favorite animals (shout out to the red pandas!). It was a beautiful day, in the 70s and very sunny. It doesn't feel like Halloween week. Emma was delighted to meet her favorite radio personality "Alabama" from 97.5. What a day!

Family visit

Paul and Lucille visited us this weekend on their way to Toronto. They showed up in a convertible which made the visit tons of fun! We did our regular weekend stuff including listening to the band practice, horseback riding, a trip to the farmer's market, dinner at Pablo's and a few round of bananagrams and cards.
