Zoo Lights

A few days ago we went to the Omaha zoo after their regular closing time for something extra they do. They have Christmas zoo lights all over, it was actually much more extensive than expected. Many of the lights here and there were in the shape of their zoo animals. It was cold, but at least not windy, so we enjoyed ourselves.





A couple of the exhibits were left open, so it was different to see them without the usual crowds, and many of the areas were dark with the animals sleeping. This is the penguin viewing area.



I thought I'd also add pictures from Hayden's Christmas program at his school. They sang about a dozen different songs, some of them unique enough that I haven't heard them before. It's fun to see how animated some of the kids can get, they're all so excited for Christmas!


There's Hayden in the center, just before their first song. For once, we could actually see his mouth moving!
