Fall/Halloween FUN-FILLED Weekend!

Probably my favorite pic of the weekend!!!
This weekend was nothing shy of jam packed!!!!  With Nate leaving this week for 2 weeks, we knew we had to finish all our fun fall/Halloween activities before his departure :)

We started on Saturday evening at Como Zoo's Annual ZooBoo!  It's apparently their largest charity event of the year and this year was the 25th anniversary, so it was fun to be a part of!

While we waited for Daddy to get home from baseball, we took the opportunity to get outside and take some fun pics in her princess costume :)
The posing didn't stop inside :)


Once we arrived, we quickly realized why it is their biggest event - there were so many people and at $7 a pop, no wonder!!!!  Kenna was a little shy at first, but soon warmed up to all the people in costumes handing out gifts, candy, etc.

Such a big girl...

My beautiful lil princess!

Although most of the animals were not out for us to enjoy, we did get to watch the seals play in the water for a bit.


Not sure how she's not getting sick of posing, but lately she's been even more fun to snap photos of!

Of course we had to get this photo op!

Halfway through we even got to visit a fire truck from the St. Paul Firemen - and side note, she now says fire truck and no longer 'beep beeps' - bittersweet for sure!

So this is hilarious to us, why you ask?!?!  Well right after we took the picture above, we struggled to get her coat on her as it was getting chilly and when I say struggle, that's an understatement.  I think because she felt so pretty, she thought her coat was covering her up, so when we saw this photo op, we just had to get it as it was SO FITTING!

Royal indeed!

Look at that sweet face - precious (most of the time!)

The bison were out for us to see too and all Kenna kept saying was, "PU!"

Daddy and Kenna checking out the one brown bear that was visible that is visiting the zoo from  the North Dakota floods that happened earlier this year.

Pretty stoked to be riding on Daddy's shoulders.

Radio Disney was in the house and Kenna had to get her groove on, so Daddy joined her and they had so much fun!

Although not the best picture of either of us, I had to make sure I included at least 1 of me and my lil lady :)

By the end of the night, she was pretty content as she was finally warm and had her potato chips in hand! (one of the many treats that were handed out throughout our visit)

We had a great time as a family and sure did enjoy something new together!  Will we make this part of our fall tradition?  I'm not sure, but if I had to guess...I think so!
