Howl-o-ween at the zoo

On Sunday we visited the zoo for their annual trick or treat Howl-o-ween scavenger hunt event. It was pouring down rain and quite late in the afternoon so we pretty much had the place to ourselves. Solomon was handsomely rewarded with all kinds of crunchy organic environmentaly friendly chocolates at the end. Go Oregon zoo, you hippies!
I finally finished Solomon's Green Lantern costume that morning. I should know better and make costumes for my own children way before my Halloween orders come in, but I always procrastinate and frantically make their costumes just the day or two before. But it is such a bummer to make a costume to every last detail only to have to cover it up with a raincoat the only time you ever get a chance to wear it.
Nalah still needs a few things made for her costume. Can't wait to share pictures of the whole crew later this week! 
Happy and safe Halloween to everyone!
