Wildlights & Santa

I know we had our Thanksgiving lunch this week and we haven't celebrated Thanksgiving yet, but we went to see Santa last night!

Wildlights at the zoo started last night with the member preview night. First we went to see the reindeer and we even had our picture taken with one.

Next we went to Mrs. Claus' kitchen and decorated our own cookie. I think they had to refill the sprinkles when we were done!

Then it was time to wait for Santa. We didn't have to wait too long and we were very excited. When our turn arrived, Chase had a little stage fright and didn't want to go. I sat on Santa's lap, got a nice picture taken and told him everything on my list. Mommy eventually carried Chase over. Santa asked him for a picture, but he still wasn't so sure. He was upset afterwards because he didn't get to tell Santa his list, but mommy said he could write him a letter.

After seeing some of the lights and getting some free snacks we headed to the aquarium because they were expecting a very special visitor. Can you believe we saw Santa again? This time he was swimming with the fish. Santa sure is a good swimmer and the fish loved the snacks he was feeding them. We really liked watching Santa swim!

After a few more lights and having our picture taken in a sleigh, it was getting late and we headed home. it sure was a pretty cool night!
