Tonight I took my kids trick or treating at the Zoo, for "Night Eyes". Company's sponsor all part's of the zoo and pass out candy for the kids. They have people dressed up for Halloween and you get to still see the animals.

1st pic: My nephew (Diego), my daughter (Dora), my son (Spider-man)
2nd pic: My daughter and Snow White and Cinderella
3rd pic: My daughter and son with the pumpkin at the end of the zoo. (Kinda blurry)

I just also wanted to mention, one of the sponsors there passing out candy was "DaVita".

I wonder if they do that here at Chicago's two zoo's. Then again, I don't have kids nor do I want to be around some noisey little kid screaming his head off.
Can you tell I'm not much for kids? :sarcasm; :rofl;

It sounds like you had fun at the zoo.  San Diego Zoo has a mother's night sleep over. I have been twice. Both times it was great fun.

Cute pics!!  Your children and nephew are adorable.  We finally talked Conor into a costume...he's going to be a policeman.  Now, we have to get him out to trick or treat.

Angela that looks like you had a lot of fun!  Halloween has never really caught on here.

My kids and I love the zoo and go all the time.   :)


an Australian recipe site did a survey and these are the responses:

Have your say
Will you celebrate Halloween

Thanks for your vote, the results so far...

Yes, we love it 7%



Maybe, it's starting to take off 6%



No, it's for Americans! 85%
