Trick or Treat at the Zoo

On Saturday we ventured out to the zoo for trick or treating. We were supposed to meet up with Angie and Jill, but that didn't quite work out (see their blogs for coverage on that). We almost didn't make it though due to a 3:30 wardrobe malfunction that included a ripped seam on the front of the costume. Luckily, I know of a GREAT seamstress/crafty/fix-it woman, Mimi, and was able to race to her house, she fixed the costume, and we only left 5 minutes late. I think Mimi deserves a big reward for that one. I am still thinking about what it should be. Once we arrived at the zoo, we had a great time and were there for about 2 hours. Sophia was so into the whole idea of trick or treating. It took us a while to walk around because she didn't want to ride in her stroller. She wanted to walk holding her basket like the big kids were doing. She is getting so BIG. I have to say, that she was by far, the most beautiful sunflower that I have ever seen. Her basket that Mimi expertly put together was a big hit. Sophia and Daddy snacking on some popcorn as we travelled. I absolutely love this picture of her!!! She loved the 3 little pigs but was concerned for the third little pig that was all by himself. She decided he needed a hug. She is such a sweetie!! Loving looking at the animals that were out. I thought these costumes were great but Sophia was not a fan. She wouldn't even look at the camera. Asserting what a big girl she is. Trick or treating by "herself". I think this picture is so funny. It looks like Cory is trying to hit on the Cheshire cat. What a smooth one he is.
