Halloween at the Zoo






The boys and I spent a lovely day at the Oregon Zoo on Sunday. The zoo sponsored a scavenger hunt with clues leading to various animals. When you arrived at the correct animal exhibit, a zoo volunteer stamped the boys' papers and gave out treats. When all the animals were found and all the stamps were collected, the boys were rewarded with goodie bags full of treats. They had a blast. The weather was unusually warm and sunny, but cool enough to draw the animals out. We saw the bears and giraffe that had eluded us all summer. I'm so thankful that we purchased the zoo membership this year and it has long since paid for itself. The Zoo Lights were already being set up while were there, and we look forward to revisiting the zoo one evening before Christmas.
