Zoo Lights

Each year the Denver Zoo sets up a special lighting display for the holidays! I been so excited to share the tradition with Zack. He loves all holiday lights so I had no doubt he would enjoy it. The weather forecast for Sunday evening looked the most promising (40 degrees dropping to 35 by 7 pm or so) so we bundled up and headed out. Our friends Heather, Brandon and JD Oss joined us for the fun.

He LOVED it!! The whole night he was saying "lights, lights, lights!!"

Most of the evening was spent chasing Zack from one display to the next.

We did manage to get him to sit still for one picture but only because he was mesmerized by the gecko.

The light tunnels were a big hit with the boys! JD (left, with mom, Heather) and Zack, with Dad.




Zack was constantly trying to get into everyone pictures.
Here he is posing with nice young lady.
Dad says it's a good way to meet chicks...
But I think it was more about the lights than the ladies....
At least for a few more years! (Crossing fingers.)

The train lit up was also quite the hit...Zack is one distracted by lights!

Brandon, JD, and Heather

It was really hard for both of the boys to stay out of the displays but they tried!
One solution was letting them play with the ropes that were suppose to keep them out.

JD is 14 months older and Zack had a blast copying him all night!
