New Year’s at the Zoo

We were sitting around wondering what to do with ourselves on New Year’s Day, when we suddenly remembered that we had a brand new Zoo Membership from my mom and dad! So we loaded the kids up and went to the zoo in the mid afternoon.  The weather was unbelievably beautiful, though frigid. All of the kids enjoyed the excursion. We had dinner at the café then went back out to enjoy the Zoo Lights. Though, truth be told, by that time we were pretty worn and So, SO cold. I’m looking forward to taking advantage of the membership again sometime soon! Maybe on a slightly warmer day? Winking smile

Surprise! Everybody had gloves! Michael made reference to the Proverbs 31 woman and I felt so proud of myself! (I realize that to those who live in places with weird weather patterns - like snow in the winter - having gloves is probably very standard, but in my suburban Pacific Northwest life, children's gloves are mostly unnecessary and usually misplaced. As in lost.)

Little boys are always especially charmed by monkeys it seemed. Like attracts like.
