Halloween Festivities

We kicked off this past weekend with a visit to the Riverbanks Zoo in Columbia. They had it all decorated for "Boo at the Zoo," their evening Halloween festivity in October. More importantly we got to see the fish in the aquarium and the penguins. Christian also took great notice of the snakes on this visit, pointing and saying, "Eww." I am thinking maybe he learned that from Daddy. Sunday night we attended First Baptist Church's fall festival, but it was just crazy insane. C enjoyed trunk or treating...and was eager to eat some "treats." This child does not like to get dressed! He wasn't so sure about his costume at first, and he kept saying, "want off," but he must have forgotten eventually that he was wearing it. I thought he made a pretty cute little sheriff. :o)Yesterday was surprising overcast, cold, and wet, so last night we attended the fall festival at Alice Drive Baptist Church (I am telling you there are so many churches here and nearly all of them had some sort of festival either on Saturday, Sunday, or Monday.) It, too, was very busy and it was held outdoors which I was unaware of, but we stayed for a little while and ran into some friends. I think Christian mostly enjoyed helping Daddy give candy to the trick-or-treaters when we came home. And then he needed a treat too.
