Halloween Decor at the Detroit Zoo!

We love visiting the Detroit Zoo, located in Royal Oak, Michigan - we are annual pass zoo members and enjoy watching the change of seasons at the zoo. As the weather gets crisper, the animals are sometimes moving around outside more often and more visible, so its fun to check in at different times of year. We visited the zoo on Columbus Day since the girls were both off of school, and I had forgotten that since they hold "Zoo Boo" parties at the zoo some evenings in the Fall - it would be decorated for Halloween as well!

They had a ton of great pumpkin displays and even some fun Fall activities like a mini hay bale maze. The girls loved seeing the zoo decorated for Halloween and the pumpkin animals were some of their favorites!

Check out the different decorations we saw in this "Day in the Life" style video on YouTube!

Inside Out DISGUST Disneybound & Costume Ideas!

I am so excited to finally see my Halloween costume come together and just had to share it! For Halloween, my husband and I had planned to dress like characters from the Disney Pixar movie 'Inside Out' - Disgust and Anger! After finding the perfect dress at ModCloth - I was happy to find the "essential" Disgust accessories as well!


I also took a few minutes to try everything on and try out the Disgust character... not only do I think it is going to be a fabulously fun choice for Halloween - I also discovered that I REALLY like wigs, who knew? 

Find all the items for this great Disneybound and/or costume below!
