So I'm sitting at the computer, which is a laptop most often used at the the kitchen table, and I'm downloading some photos from our camera to use on the blog. Then, fresh from the oven, Danelle pours a whole batch of chex mix onto some wax paper on the table right next to me. There is something about warm chex mix that is just irresistable. Yum.
We made it to Zoo lights Friday evening during a break in the rain. Our timing was perfect. We strolled in just before dark, and got on the first train ride. After the train ride, we strolled around the zoo for a little while and enjoyed the lights. Every year, they add something new. This year it was some lights that were timed to look like rain and snow falling on some of the larger trees.
Yesterday both of the kids had their skating lessons in the morning. Then Kristin got to go to a cookie decorating party at one of her classmates' house. Each girl got to decorate a dozen sugar cookies. Kristin did a really great job decorating.
Danelle and I then went to my company's Christmas party at the Skamania Lodge in the Columbia River Gorge. We could have stayed the night, but that would have presented some childcare challenges so we just stayed for the dinner and presentations. It was still nice to get out though.
A couple pictures from Zoo Lights. We found someone to take a photo of all of us, but Kellen of course had other ideas.
