All Halloween Weekend!


Be warned...this is a photo intensive blog...
As mentioned earlier, we headed off to the city for some Halloween fun. On Saturday we went to my Uncle's VFW for a kids Halloween party. Jordyn had a great time with all of the kids, and she really enjoyed hanging out with her Godmom Christy. Here they are with her and her stepcousin Parker, lining up for the costume contest. I think folks had a tough time choosing a winner, so all the kids won a prize :)

They also received a bag of yummies...what would a Halloween party be without a giant bag of candy! Here is Jordyn inspecting her loot...

She played her first game of hot potato...or i guess hot pumpkin. She didnt quite grasp the idea of the game, so the kids on either side of her did most of the work.

She did win a prize for bowling and getting a strike on the first try, by throwing (not rolling) the ball. It was a wonderful party, and everyone had a great time!

Afterwords, we all headed to the house for pizza and beers, while the kids ran around in the backyard enjoying their sugar high :)

On Sunday we headed out the the Denver Zoo...

this was my first experience with Boo at the Zoo, and it was AWESOME! If you ever get the chance you should go!

There were 30 booths set up all around the zoo for the kids to trick or treat...some fancier than others, but all fun!

It was jam packed, but the weather was great and all the parents, as well as the kids, were in great spirits. There was fun everywhere you looked...they had jugglers and other entertainment, food and drinks, and if that wasnt enough, there was always the animals :)

We missed bird world last time, so we made sure to check it out this time. Besides, Daddy was cold and wanted to warm up in the "tropical climate".

The sea lions were basking in the sun, barking up a storm. Jordyn thought they were hilarious! We had a blast!

Hope you enjoyed a peek at our fabulous weekend!

You did have a marvelous weekend. Watch out for that black bear knocking on your door Friday. It might not be someone in a costume.
