Zoo Lights

We attempted our first family trip to Lincoln Park Zoo last night, and now know better to avoid the Saturday before Christmas downtown Chicago for years to come! It was crazily crowded, but fun nonetheless. Although Grace slept through the first half of our trip (and the gorillas and lions), she absolutely loved the sparkly lights surrounding the zoo. It was a beautiful night after the first true snowfall, and sure to be a festive family tradition going forward.... only next year we'll be sure to visit the first week of December instead of one of the last :)

Dad and G-mack.

Pretty lights.

Grace bundled for the chilly night.

Family shot. Zach and I thoroughly enjoyed the warm, spiced wine served at the zoo cafe! Delicious!
