Owen's First Trip to the Zoo and the Witchie-poo Party!

It has taken us all summer and half of the fall to work out everybody's schedules, but we finally took Owen to the Hogle Zoo!  He loved watching the animals, although, I'm sure we had more fun than him.  We got to go with his Aunt Whitney, Grandma Larsen, Jane and Grant, and Aunt Charlene!  Thanks Aunt Charlene for taking us to the zoo!

 Grandma Larsen and Owen checkin out the scary Grizzly Bears!  We didn't get to see the Polar Bear swim, and we were pretty sad about that--but we got to see lots of other fun things.  And, of course, Owen's binkie is ever-present!

 Owen and his Daddy...and a giraffe!

We had a full day of family...but that's what happens when we drive down for the weekend.  We have to fit as much family time in as we can!  Grandma Jan (Barker) does a Witchie-poo party every October.  She plans lots of fun Halloween activities for the grand-kids.  Owen can't do many of them yet, but he did have fun as a mummy!  These pictures make me smile!
