Christmas at the Zoo


Another annual tradition for our family is going in to the National Zoo in DC for the ZooLights display! The kids were so excited and it wasn't too miserably cold, so we had a lot of fun walking around looking at all the lights throughout the zoo, and even visiting some animals. The gorillas were all sleeping but we still got to see them in their hammocks! It's a magical experience to be walking through the zoo at night when most of the exhibits are closed but displays and trees are lit up everywhere.

After dinner, we visited the barn and saw a cow named Rose ("like Skyla Rose!"), some goats, donkeys, a pig and some llamas.


This being the National Zoo, the kids got to play with a panda in a snowglobe. Kisses and hugs all over.
