December

Here’s what the Kings were up to in December:
The Varsity XC team had a Christmas party/scavenger hunt that sent them running all over The Ridge

Here’s Avery’s buddy, Dallen, leading the team in singing “We Wish You a Merry Christmas”

Parental silly string ambush!

Outside Starbucks

Each location on the scavenger hunt had something to do with a different teammate.

We went to Wade Walthall’s Nutcracker at Evergreen City Ballet. Wade was my ballet teacher when I was growing up, and he was a principal dancer at PNB and starred as the Prince in the 1986 televised version of The Nutcracker. He is now creative director at Evergreen City Ballet.

We met our friends, the Holubs, at The Nutcracker. Here’s Layla with her friend, Brittan.

Visiting Santa

We continued our Cougar Mountain Zoo tradition of visiting Santa at the Reindeer Festival. This year was covid modified, so no masks, and but Santa is socially distanced behind the kids in the picture. Things are getting better!

The cougars were very active today. They even meowed a little!
