Christmas Eve at the Zoo

We had our annual Christmas Eve at the zoo this year. I always love it. There's something so special about being practically the only ones at the zoo. Last year they were revamping the dolphin show so it was closed but this year we got to see it. We also go to see lots of houses that we hadn't been in in quite a while. Everyone had fun. Both Jamie was dead to the world about 5 minutes after we got in the car to go home!


The dolphins were especially playful in the underwater viewing. I think it was because this was about 20 minutes before the show started and they must have a sense for it.

The very coolest part of the whole day (which was lost on Anne because she's too young to realize what an honor this was) was Anne was picked to go down and make hand signals to the dolphins. There were maybe 20 people at the show, so I think all the kids that raised their hands got to go down.

Look at how close she got! How neat!

And, she's back!
