Zoo Boo and other stuff...

So I thought the weather was finally starting to be tolerable.  We had one day where the temperature only reached into the mid-70's.  I was so excited that it was going to be "cool" so I found some long-sleeved outfits for the kiddos and we headed to the playground.

 Emmery is tracking a dragonfly.

It seems that she has mastered this playground.  I rarely have to help her, but it's hard to just stand by and watch!!

This is how Marc goes down the slide.  Crawls to the top, lets go, and slides down!  He loves it!

Emmery pretty much asks to go to the zoo every day.  So on Sunday we decided to check out "Zoo Boo." They basically decorate the exhibits and have a few different fall/Halloween activities for the kids.  It was cute.  The mosquitos are horrendous in Houston right now.  On our way there we stopped to get some bug spray.  I grabbed the one that had the highest concentration of Deet.  Very glad I did!

Wake up Bear!!

They had little stations where they were giving away candy.  Marc loved to hold as many pieces as he could.  Until he figured out what was inside.  Then we had to take it away.

They had a little "Pumpkin Patch." The kids could pick one of these teeny tiny pumpkins and decorate it.

Her favorite thing to do at the zoo!  The tunnel!  We didn't put Marc in this time because it was so crowded.

This frog was called a Tomato Frog or something. Looks just like a tomato!

Exhausted!
