Tonight we were able to attend Christmas at the Zoo- a first for our little family! The Indianapolis Zoo does an awesome job of putting up lights and decorations everywhere. And you can see them even before you get to the parking lot. As we were waiting to turn into the zoo, Tori exclaimed, "I'm so excited, it's so amazing!" It was so fun seeing how excited she was. She kept repeating both phrases as were were walking in and we noticed many people around us chuckling and totally enjoying her enthusiasm!
Tori requested a picture with the giraffe and the flamingo- she was having a ball!
Doesn't it look fantastic?!!
Another fun picture of Tori with the lights!
Garrett, Tori, and I got our picture with the visiting zoo animal- a reindeer!!!
Our last stop of the evening was to visit Santa and Mrs. Claus. But before we found them, Tori was totally enthralled with this beautiful Christmas tree! It was so fun watching her lovingly touch all of the ornaments and then make sure we had seen them too!
We found Mrs Claus in her kitchen and she was so wonderful!!! Tori loved getting a hug from her!
She made sure to talk with Garrett a bit as well! We are big fans of Mrs. Claus!!!
Then came the wait in line to meet Santa- I think the wait was worth it! Check out this awesome moment we captured!
Jared stayed close so he could hear what Tori and Santa were talking about. This was their conversation:
Santa: "What do you want for Christmas?"
Tori: "Miss Piggy (we have been listening to John Denver and the Muppets Christmas album a lot the past week!), Tiana, and Snow White!"
Santa: "Have you been a good girl?"
Tori: "Yes, I went poop on the potty!"
We had so much fun this evening! It was the perfect first Christmas-y event for our family!!!
