For the first time, we visited the Houston Zoo during their Winter Wild celebration. At night for 2 weekends, they stay open late and have lots of lights. It happened to be quite cold that night, but we had lots of fun. We got to do some crafts and Alex decorated a sugar cookie at Mrs. Claus' Kitchen. I enjoyed a cup of hot chocolate. We both walked through a tunnel where it was snowing!
We both thought the best part was the ice carver. A man used a chain saw and carved a penguin out of a block of ice. As he carved, ice sprayed the crowd. The kids, including Alex, got up close to get as ice-covered as possible. She loved it! I took a couple of pictures, but they didn't turn out well enough to show up on our blog - too dark!
We'll have to do this again next year!
