Halloween @ the L.A. Zoo






On Saturday October 24th, We went to the L.A. Zoo with Eliza Burhley for the "BOO" day of trick-0r-treating and running around before the general public arrived. Since we have a family pass we were able to be there @ 9 am and watch pumpkin carving demonstrations, go to a pumpkin patch, watch a scare crow on stilts creep out the little kids, and see all the zoo animals before it was too crowded. I'm so glad we got there early and left by 11 cause the parking lot was packed when we got back to our car.


Eliza and Naomi were troopers for walking all over the zoo. We only had a single stroller and the zoo was a lot of hiking. They were exhausted by the end of the two hours there. Oh, and they had stayed up till 10 pm the night before reading books and giggling in the bed. It was a fun day. Eliza and Naomi get along well with their quick whit and great ideas of the fun things planned next.



Heidi got to sit and relax, but felt she was missing out every time we'd stop to see a caged animal. So she was in and out a lot, but rode in luxury.



We are so happy to have the Burhleys' close, if only for a little while.
