Zoo Lights!

Friday Don came home from work early and we decided since it was a rare dry night that we should head out to Zoo Lights! I have to admit that I was sure the night would be marred with really bad traffic and long lines, but I was wonderfully surprised! We made it to the zoo in less than an hour (pretty darn good coming from Sherwood, during rush hour and holiday traffic). We made a bee line for the train and only had to wait maybe 10 minutes! When we got off the train, the line was a 45 minute wait! Anyways, our choo choo lovin' boy Connor was in complete awe of the train. He was speechless! He didn't want to sit on our laps, he wanted to stand and look out the window as if to take it all in! It was so cute to watch him! When we were done with the train, we walked around the zoo a little bit and Connor was just enamored with all the lights. Most of our pictures are actually of his cute face rather than the lights! When we got home that night, he was signing for the train so fast and ferociously I thought his hands would spark! He cried and cried when we told him we couldn't go back on the train. So sad. Good thing Santa is bringing this kiddo some new trains!

Me and Kellen! Look at him all bundled up. What a cutie pie.
