Boo, it's the Zoo

 We went to the Buffalo Zoo on Saturday.  They were having a Halloween event, and I think the boys enjoyed the decorations and the playground even more than seeing the animals!  The zoo is nice, although the spaces for the animals are pretty small, which is sad.  We did get a couple up close and personal moments -- the sea lion bounced up and almost touched our hands (because the trainer happened to come out just then and he thought it was feeding time!)  And then the lionness was napping right next to the glass.  :)  The baby gorilla was also really cute.

James also enjoyed throwing leaves with a couple of other kids (and their mom told me that their kindergartener has three hours of homework a night, which sounds completely insane.)
