We visited Santa and his reindeer at the Cougar Mountain Zoo in early December. The boys were so well-behaved, and we had a great time seeing all the animals together. We bought some apple slices to feed to the reindeer on our way up to Santa’s cabin. There was no wait to get in (we never have to wait more than five minutes). Then Avery presented the list to Santa, shared what he and his brothers would like for Christmas, and we got this cute picture. I love that it’s become a tradition to go to this small local zoo each December!

The boys weren’t feeling so cooperative when it was time to take a picture with Daddy (at the end of the day).
