Every year we love going to see the Longmont Lights & this year we added more lights when we received 2 free tickets to the Denver Zoo Lights.
The children loved being able to see & high 5 & hug characters without having to wait in line! See, Disney World is a great place for learning as well as fun. The reindeer station was my favorite b/c I thought it was very clever: a dot of red lipstick for the noses. Danny & Kaelah liked decorating cookies with tons of frosting best.
Before attending the Zoo Lights we went to the Denver Museum of Nature & Science with Lisa, Ethan, & Joseph again. It was nice that Dan could join us this time. He found a great, quiet, place for us to eat our sack lunch that we will definitely use all the time! Here is a picture of Ethan & Kaelah eating at their own table. I teased Lisa that we were letting our 4 & 5- year-olds go on a date. She informed me that Ethan had said he was going to marry Kaelah someday because she'll be able to go in the temple. How cute is that?!? Right before they said good-bye Ethan tried to give Kaelah a kiss on the lips but missed and got her chin instead. I'm very curious to see what she would do if he ever succeeds in that attempt.
The Zoo Lights were crazy! Imagine a free day at the zoo but where only half of the zoo is open. And the only animal the children could actually see were the penguins in their little home b/c there was artificial light in there. Yet... they certainly enjoyed the lights & the idea of taking a ride on the carrousel or train. Michelle had her heart set on riding the panda bear & Kaelah & Danny wanted to ride the train. When Michelle & I got back from the carrousel Danny was asleep & Kaelah had made a new friend (pictured above). So a nice lady helped me trade Michelle for Danny & I sat with him asleep on my shoulder while the girls got to take a train ride with their Daddy. I guess that just proves Danny had a great day!
