Angel Tree!

Last Saturday we got the opportunity to pick two names off the Angel Tree that are in need of items for Christmas. The kids did a great job looking for things on the list. It's also a very good lesson for my kids and it made us all realize how fortunate we are.
Then SANTA stopped by for a visit!



Afterwards we went to ZOO LIGHTS at the zoo. On the way there, Carter asked if Mickey Mouse or Winnie The Pooh was going to be there? "No, It's the zoo" I said. "Where the animals live." Carters eyes got really big and then he said, "REAL ANIMALS?" I then looked at Mike and realized I have never taken him to the zoo. It is true what they say about the 3rd child. He's left out of everything.:) He was mesmerized by the monkeys and tigers.



It was a very long day, but a great experience. We really enjoyed hanging out as a family.

What an awesome Santa! He must be the REAL one from the North Pole. That zoo looks amazing. How fun for Carter to finally experience REAL animals - that's so funny! What a great family time together.
