We have really missed our zoo pass so when I found out that it was free zoo day I knew that I wanted to take the girls and lucky for us Nic and the kids came with us too. It was colder than we expected but we came prepared with out warm clothes. When we got there the parking lot was only half full. We love when the zoo isn't super busy so we can let the kids roam and run. Em was really excited to see some of the animals and unsure about others. The animals were pretty active so that was fun to see them more interactive.
Then we even got photobombed by the tiger. He paced back and forth for a long time Nic was sure he was thinking about making us his next meal
Then of coarse we needed to ride the carousel.
It wasn't Em's favorite I ended up holding her the last half of the ride
Then all the kids were given a token to vote for their favorite animal
As the sun was settling they turned on all the Christmas lights. It was fun to see them on our way out because with the sun also went the little warmth there was and it quickly got cold.
We were barely out of the parking lot when Em fell asleep and slept most of the way home.
We ate snacks and watched a movie on the way home. We dropped Nic and the kids off before heading home for the night. We had a great time and it was just the perfect time to get out, get some fresh air, and visit. Im so grateful Nic lives so close and is willing to spend time with us
