Sunday we went with my parents down to the Indianapolis Zoo for the their ZooBoo celebration. This is the 3rd year that we have done this and it always ends up being one of my favorite things to do with the boys. The Zoo is all decorated for Halloween and the kids dress up in their costumes. They trick-or-treat along the way of seeing all of the animals and they have a huge tent set up with pumpkin activities for the kids. The animals always seem to be more active in the afternoon and this time it was no different. The sea lions were barking, the lions and tigers were out walking around their territory, and the giraffes were running. The elephants were the most impressive animal of the day. I caught a little of what we saw on video on my camera.
The zookeepers eventually had to come out and lead the elephants to the back because the one was so out of control. He threw a stick that came about 10 feet from landing outside the fence. Apparently one of the elephants stepped outside the matriarchy and upset the elephant.

Geez, what did you guys do to those poor elephants :) It looks like you guys had a blast again! Maybe next year we'll bring the kids in and check it out as well!
