I did the unforgivable.....I took this yesterday (with the point & shoot - misty at the zoo last night and I didn't want to take the real deal) but didn't upload it. I uploaded some to FB for Gina but needed to lay down. I love the Festival of Lights - to go with the boys was just wonderful. Noah wants to believe, but at 10 knows the truth. Owen was right there - present at that moment with Santa. He was telling his list but also concerned that Santa knew that he was spending Christmas Eve at our house! Santa is down with that. Gina surprised us this past Friday and asked if we could spend Christmas morning together. Nobody has walked down these steps with the expectation of seeing what Santa had brought since I did - oh so many years ago. Needless to say, we were down with that, also.
The Zoo was pretty cool about photos. They want to sell you the package that starts at $18. We had already bought train tickets, meals and carousel rides - we are members so admission was free for us and the kids and I had a half price coupon for Gina. But it mounts up -so my Santa shots are going to have to do. I was glad that they let me take some shots.
Oh I just love this, Cathy. That look on Owen's face is so precious. Sounds like it was a fabulous day. How fun to be all together Christmas morning. Enjoy. A fav for me!!!
