It was wild - we were at the zoo and there were so many children dressed up. Everyone was looking great, excited as all get out, and if anything like us, having the time of their life. That’s right - we went to the 2008 Boo at the Zoo at the Oakland Zoo. We got there quite early - about ten minutes to 9:00, before they even opened, and we were one of the first to arrive. I’m glad we got through the exciting stuff quickly, because we really did get to see the zoo and the other kids in their costumes - the girls even got their face (Sofi) and arm (Natalie) painted.
Some of the costumes were really creative - Thing 1 and Thing 2 from Doctor Seuss (twins), Thomas the Train, Two Trees (parents) with their monkey (baby), Yoda, Wonder Woman, and more! There were, of course, a multitude of princeses, although I’m biased to think that my girls looked the best! Mama and I didn’t dress up at all this year, but I think that next year we should reconsider and do some sort of family theme so that we really stand out. Now I just have to come up with a good theme.
