Halloween 2012

 Our zoo does "Night of the Living Zoo" trick or treat

They have candy stands, games, treats and fun decorations

it was a fun brisk night

 some was zoning out

 I love seeing all the carved pumpkins

some were very traditional and others exotic

you can go the day prior to trick or treating and carve a pumpkin that they will display

 London wanted to be a pirate this year

I had all kinds of neat ideas swimming around my head

but I was informed that she wanted to be Izzie - from Jake and the Neverland Pirates

I tried to get her to wear and patch - but was informed that Izzie doesn't wear one

I tried to get her to carry a sword - but Izzie doesn't have one - she has pixie dust

If you don't know Izzie - you can check her out on the Disney Jr Channel

So here is my Izzie

 it's Halloween - you have to have your picture taken with a black cat

good luck - right?

 and my sweet little bat 

who did not want to do any posing for mam ma 

this was London's costume

London in 2008

 the bat is done taking pictures

we miss trick or treating with our neighbors who moved this past year

but had some fun new ones to go with

 Russ found this giant hot dog for supper

Russ' pumpkin

London cleaned out the guts

and Russ carved

 Another successful Halloween

the only disappointment I had

None, not one Twix candy bar was to be found in London's or Kennedy's bag!
