We Froze Our Butts Off!

Now that I have your attention...LOL we did get a bit chilly and got rained on while at our local zoo event, "Boo at the Zoo" tonight. All in all we made the best of it and the kids really had a good time. It really wasn't a good night to have Lily out and about though. We put on her Minnie Mouse Halloween costume with a sleeper underneath and then put a hat on her instead of her ears and wrapped her in blankets. She probably stayed the most warm and dry of any of us because she stayed in her infant car seat with the top completely covering her from the rain in her own little cocoon. I was so worried about her though, wondering if I had her dressed appropriately and if she was ok. She really did well. She cried a little bit when she couldn't see us or if something got too loud but for the most part she was happy as a clam. We did seek out some warmth and comfort in several of the buildings they have there like the Wolf Lodge and the Medical Center. The kids were able to do some fun activities at both. Gwyneth was very excited running around in her Snow White costume! She was especially excited when she saw Cinderella at the gates. I mean the woman dressed up like her looked exactly like she could be Cinderella! Gwynny was awestruck! Can't wait till we go to Disney in February and see the look on her face there! :) I wish I had some pictures to post for you but I forgot my camera and Bill only took a few since the weather wasn't very cooperative. Maybe I can steal some of his once he gets done editing them. Well, I am exhausted so I am going to hit the bed soon. We have a very busy day again tomorrow and Sunday. Take care everyone and have a blessed weekend!
