Boo-Palooza Halloween Event at Wicker Park

This Saturday the 24th, Wicker Park held their annual Boo-Palooza Halloween Event!  Unfortunately it started raining cats and dogs on the walk there and Joseph and I got soaked!  Luckily we covered Maddie with the umbrella. We hung out in the park fieldhouse until the rain cleared and got a couple of cookies, and Maddie had her very first chocolate chip cookie!

Grandma Kathy made Maddie the cutest lion costume!  We got so many "Oohs" and "Aws" as we wheeled Maddie around the park.  The sun popped out shortly after the rain cleared and it turned into such a lovely morning! They had lots of activities and goodies, Maddie will be able to participate much more next year. Maddie also had her very first candy bar, a couple of small bites of a Twix bar Joseph picked up from a booth. They had a "pumpkin patch" where each child could pick out a pumpkin for decorating and we had fun decorating the pumpkins with stickers! We also got a couple of toothbrushes which Maddie enjoyed chewing on during the parade.

We walked through the costume parade and unfortunately did not win a prize. We headed home for a much needed nap, then headed to our friend Lillian's second birthday party (separate post)!

Lots of pictures & videos below!


Very first candy bar!






 
Using her new toothbrush!

Maddie threw a tantrum when we told her to stop chewing on the side of the wagon. It was definitely time for a nap!
