Before we left, the kids were complaining. We've already seen lights.We've been to the zoo, we don't want to go again. It will be so boring and it is raining.
"No" I promised, it will be fun. "Plus I want to go so you get to go to!"
It is definitely Christmas. On the way down, Makayla spotted "Elf Storage." Cayleb asked if that is where the elves keep some of the toys. I answered, "Probably, there is a lot of stuff to store for Christmas." He didn't know the "S" was burned out.
Once they saw this, they were happy! 
The jaws of life, sort of.
When we come to the zoo, we tactfully avert the merry-go-round until we are about ready to leave.
Why?
Because once Makenzy gets on she doesn't want to get off. With our annual zoo pass, she can go an unlimited number of times. However, during Zoo Lights there is a $1 fee per ride. She got her turn, just not as many as she wanted.
