Saturday was such a busy day for us, I still don't know how the kids were able to be so good running all over the place with no naps. We got up around 8:00 and I made orange rolls for breakfast then we got the kids dressed into their Halloween costumes to go Trick or Treating at the Hogle Zoo. It was so packed you couldn't really move without running into someone. I don't think we'll be going there again during Halloween again, but the kids had fun. After the zoo we had some time to kill before my niece Kara's piano recital. She came up Friday from St. George and spent the night. We decided to go to the Gateway Mall in Salt Lake City. They had some activity day for the blind there which was really cool. They were doing a scavenger hunt and I was able to help two of them find an ice cream store. After a couple hours at the mall it was off to Kara's piano recital. She did an excellent job, we were totally impressed with how well she played and we weren't the only ones impressed. Another piano teacher came up to her and told her that if he was one of the judges he would give her first place. What a compliment to her playing. After that we went to Outback Steakhouse for dinner. By the time we got home it was 9:30 and the kids were beyond ready to go to bed. It was a really long day, but a good one!

The tiger was pretty agitated with all the people there, he kept pacing up and down. I was really this close to him, no zoom on the camera pretty cool huh?!
