Zoo Year's Eve
Faith and Eric spent New Year's Eve sleeping overnight at the zoo with 43 other children between the ages of 6 and 12. They called it Zoo Year's Eve. We dropped them off at 5 o'clock on New Year's Eve and picked them up at 9 AM New Year's Day (a little early, considering the suggestion was for parents to leave their kids at the zoo and go out for their own festivities). They got to eat pizza for dinner and go into the zoo in the dark after hours and stay up until midnight with hot chocolate and sparkling cider. I took this picture in the parking lot before dropping them off. When I picked them up, the first thing Faith asked was if they could do it again next year.
