We go to tiny zoo?

 

After going to the zoo Monday morning and Tuesday night, Parker is currently obsessed with the zoo and wants to go every day.  So, when we headed over to Swanson's to see the reindeer, he asked about the zoo.  After explaining what we were doing, he declared, "We go to tiny zoo?"

 

He's still pretty afraid of animals, so he wasn't too excited about the reindeer, but he still had a great time.

 

I think this is the best photo we got in the sleigh:

 

Parker was much more interested in climbing in & out of the sleigh than in sitting in it for a photo.

 

He loved the Koi pond.

 

I wish this photo did justice to the evening.  Swanson's displays their Christmas trees by hanging them in rows from the ceiling.  Parker had a blast running up & down the aisles between the trees.

 

And here's the one photo I took on Friday. (and it's out of focus).  We went downtown for Keith's office family Christmas party.  Traffic was terrible, so we were pretty late.  But we did get to see Santa, which flat-out terrified Parker, but Cecily was happy to get her photo taken.  We also took a turn on the carousel, which also terrified Parker...until we tried to get him off, then he suddenly wanted to ride the horsey.
