Spooktacular at the St. Augustine Alligator Farm

On Friday night before Halloween, we got the kids all dressed up in their costumes and headed to the St. Augustine Alligator Farm for an evening of trick-or-treating with their friends Mack and Sydney Solms.

 This year we had a Ellie as a Devil, Sydney as a Werewolf, Mack as a Hot Dog and Emory as a Hobo.

 The kids had lots of fun running around, trick or treating and just acting silly together at the Alligator Farm.

Here's Emory having a close call with an alligator! 

Ellie was able to come along and wrench open the alligator's jaws and save her brother! 

It's not the best picture but here's an alligator who picked up a grapefruit that had fallen off of tree and was taking it back to the water.  We're not sure if it was to eat or just to play with.

At the end of the evening the Alligator Farm closed the night with a big alligator feeding by one of the zoo keepers.  This picture was taken a litttle earlier in the evening.  These alligators were gathered together to get their share of alligator kibble (that looks like dry dog food) that was being thrown into the water from a bridge above.  It was amazing to see (and hear!) so many of them at one time!
