Pre-Halloween Festivities

Yesterday evening, we went to Boo at the Zoo! 

 Addi was a little reserved when we first got there, and just took it all in for a little bit. 

 We rode the carousel first. 

 It didn't take long for her to warm up!

 Her and Josh went down this slide a ton!

 Josh actually couldn't ride this with her. The man came and made him get off, but Addi did great by herself!

 On the Haunted Train. Poor lamb squeezed her eyes so tight during the last few minutes of the ride. There was a snake thing that kinda popped out and that scared her. And then at the very end there were some people in masks that jumped out. I'm glad she had her eyes shut for that! I had to make a conscious effort not to hit anyone. Reflex!  

 Getting her face painted. 

 She chose a pumpkin!

 Addi really wanted to go to this climbing sort of play place thing they had set up, it looked too old, but she insisted and there were some kids her age on it. Bless her heart, she jumped in the ball pit and was trying to get out about the time this little boy in a Scream mask was jumping in. He didn't mean to scare her, but it frightened her SO bad. She got out of there so quick with tears just streaming down her face. I felt so bad. She calmed down pretty quick and we told her it wasn't real, some kids just choose to dress up like scary people, just like she chose to dress up like Rapunzel. She kept talking about it very matter of factly the rest of the night. Thankfully, she hasn't mentioned it at all today. 

After that incident, she kept saying, "I wanna dance!" So we took her to this little pavilion and she danced for a little bit. :)

 This morning was her Fall Festival school! She had talked all month about being Spiderman, but changed her mind to Rapunzel. Whatever makes her happy!

 Lunch with Daddy later on after school. 

 I promised Addi if she took a good nap, we would do some Halloween crafts and make cookies. She was so excited to use her new scissors and glue stick! 

Hope y'all had a great day!!!
