Halloween Triple Play

This year we made up for Tony missing last year's Halloween. And Simone loved every second of it. On 24 October, we went to Boo at the Zoo with Jennifer, Chris, and Madalyn. Simone knew she was wearing a costume for Halloween, but she was more than a little surprised when everyone got dressed up--even mommy and daddy--which blew her mind.

Simone picked her own costume this year. Of all the racks full of costumes, she was NOT leaving the store without this ladybug.



Tony was a celebrity in his sumo costume; and loved every minute of it.



Simone kept her antennas on and held her own bag the whole night...





The next weekend, we took a trip to Hershey Park for "Hershey Park in the Dark". We stayed at Hotel Hershey, which was great. A view of the back of the hotel, complete with iceskating rink.




Still loves waterfalls and fountains...





The main dining room, where we had a wonderful buffet lunch on Saturday ....

























Simone loved watching the koi in the ponds...





































































































More trick or treating...












































and more rides...

















And finally, Halloween night. We got home from Hershey in time to carve pumpkins and suit up for trick or treating in our neighborhood.

























We got a bit of rain, but no worries, Simone thought carrying an umbrella with her costume was extra fun!!


And look... a gross, ugly slug found its way onto our jack o lantern, YUCK!!


Until next time...
