Halloween 2007

Halloween started a couple days early as we attended the Zoo Boo event at the Indianapolis Zoo.  Jean made Kylan and Kristofer's costumes and we are borrowing Erik's panda costume from his friend, Nick.  We got a lot of looks and comments, especially for the cute little Scarlet Macaw.

We also joined Erik's Cub Scout Den at Conner Prairie for the Headless Horseman hayride and other activities.  There was a hayride that had a few encounters with the character from the Legend of Sleepy Hollow.

More pictures will be posted from Halloween night.

This is a sampling of pictures of the animals we saw at Zoo Boo.  It was a cool day so the animals were very active
 


Our scarlet macaw was wore out after a full day at the zoo
 

One of the interpreters at Conner Prairie prepared us for the party and a possible encounter with the Headless Horseman

Kylan was terrified since he has such a juicy head
