Zoolight Safari 2013

We love going to the zoo for Zoolight Safari.  It’s usually pretty cold, but we bundle up and tough it out.  New this year, they brought in a large Christmas tree and have a nightly tree lighting.

The girls love visiting Santa here.  I thought Samantha might be over her fear of Santa, but no.  She likes Santa at the zoo, but when Santa came to school for breakfast a few days earlier, she wanted nothing to do with him.  Ellie was thrilled to be able to share her wish.  The girls each told Santa one thing.  I was impressed that it was only one each.  Samantha asked for a Rainbow Loom, and Ellie asked for a trunk full of princess dresses.  We’ll see if they’ve been good.

And of course, we had to take a ride on the Candy Cane Express.  A trip to Zoolight Safari would not be complete without it.

FLASHBACK:

I have fond memories of Samantha in this pink coat.  In fact, here is one of my favorite pictures from Zoolight Safari 2010.  Brown Baby is posing as an elf.

One thought on “Zoolight Safari 2013”

  1. Janie, you never ever had anything to do with Santa.
    You also insisted that we do a house search before you would come down on Christmas day to insure he was gone.
