Few Fun things

We had so much fun last week at the art museum that we just had to go again. We were lucky too cause they also had a puppet show up in the the art gallery. The lady that did it was great and the kids loved it. The story was a variation of Jack and the Beanstalk. The girls keep saying they want to go to Jack's farm to see the magic eggs and get some chocolate milk.

Happy NOON Year
The zoo had a Happy Noon Year this year. It was a New Year celebration kicked off at high noon. I was a bit worried cause when we got there it was very cold, mainly due to the freezing wind. After making a hat and shaker inside we went outside to watch the ball drop. Not a bad way to celebrate the New Year with little kids and a husband on call (aka working a 30 hour shift).

Are those my kids? Its hard to tell.

Making our shakers. It was SO crowded! I really didn't expect such crowds with it being so cold.
