We Made It To The Zoo This Time!

We had a wonderful adventure at the zoo with our friends!

Some Highlights:
*Aubrie liked "swimming" with the fish...
*It was almost more fun to watch Amber pet the sharks than the kids...
*The Christmas lights were amazingly beautiful...
*The holiday train exhibit was really fun (especially for Phil and Caleb)...
*We learned that if you pretend you didn't read the "no strollers" sign you can bring your strollers into the dolphin underwater viewing area...

Some... uh... Lowlights:
*It was cold...
*The Zoo's Christmas activities were mostly Santa Claus related (which... I mean... Santa's OK and everything... I'm just gettin' a little burned out on him...), and they all cost additional money...
*We kept waiting for the dolphin show to start... and then it was over...

We seriously had a great time, though, including the 2 + hours it took us to get there (we did a little bit of shopping along the way), and the yummy dinner we had at Chilis afterward (where Ian did an encore presentation of the "shrieking baby" show)...

A picture's worth a thousand words:

Robert, Amber, Avalyn, and Aubrie

The Six of Us... Sort of posing in front of the Christmas Tree...

Oh, did I forget to mention we tied Seth to the train tracks?
