Pittsburgh's ZOOBOO

We took advantage of the beautiful fall day and headed out to ZooBoo at the Pittsburgh Zoo. Toby decided he wanted to be a cat this year (last year he was a tiger, so we're keeping to the feline family evidently) and he said Liliana should be a dog. So I added ears and a tail to a black hoodie for him and used bath scrunchies to make Liliana into a poodle. They turned out great! And the best part is that the clothes can continue to be worn, unlike a normal Halloween costume.

We got there in the early afternoon and Lili was none too thrilled. BUT...after the first trick or treat spot the kids got into it and they were hooked. For it being a cool fall day, the animals weren't that active. In fact the entire primate house was sleeping. The bears were very entertaining however. We also got to see the new elephant babies, but not the tiger cub because he was off exhibit by the time we got back to him. Hopefully next time.

Even though Liliana is weepy, this is probably my favorite picture of them together.

I'm not too sure I'm ready for this Toby
