After school, we met up with some friends at Goebberts Farm in Barrington. After running around, we went into the animal area and got to feed and pet some animals, like baby calves:
a zebra
and a giraffe
Here is Talia hanging on one of the poles in tent. I think it is such a cute picture, even though she got in trouble for hanging on one of the tent poles.
Here is one of the "exotic" animals--a cross between a donkey and a zebra--a "Zonkey". I have never seen one of these before. Pretty cool looking animal, I think.
After Goebberts, we headed to my Hens playgroup, which meets every Thursday, to celebrate Halloween. Here's some pics of the kiddos:
and a group shot:
After that, we were EXHAUSTED!!
On Friday, one of the Mundelein grade schools hosted an indoor Halloween carnival and game playing, so we headed over there to get an early start on trick or treating. Fun times!
On Saturday, we headed to Lemont to celebrate Halloween and Payton's 8th birthday. Talia loved trick or treating, but had a hard time keeping up with the older kids. She was a little scared of some of the decorations, which was cute. Sometimes, she is such a girl. We were so proud of her, as she was so polite and would continually remember to say "thank you" without needing to be told. Sweet girl! We got to hang out with Nonna and Nonno too (my parents), so that was a treat.
While it was cold, we were only out for about 45 mins. and that was more than enough candy for her (us).
Here are a couple of pics of Payton's party:
While it was a very tiring few days, we all had a great time! Hope that your Halloween was just as fun!
