boo at the zoo.

last week, mike & i took my nephew and niece to a halloween event called "boo at the zoo". it's held at winnipeg's zoo but very little emphasis is actually put on the animals. instead, they decorate the place like crazy, have tons of dressed up characters walking around, and offer several kiddie rides. xavier got to talk to a guy in a fully decked out batman costume - a dream come true for a four year old who wants to dress up as batman for halloween.

as a side note, let me just say that i'm going to be very disappointed if my children aren't as cute as my nephews & niece. it would seem most unfair...

ps. you have until friday, 8pm central time to enter the dani press card giveaway! i will be announcing the randomly chosen winner (although some of my friends have pressured me to do otherwise) on monday. dani happened to write a very sweet blog post about our friendship - check it out here.
