Saturday, we all went to the Zoo to see Santa. They did a new thing this year that lasted about 2 hours and it was really neat. I was wishing I hadn't bought tickets, but now I'm so glad we did. Cameron got to meet a reindeer, which he thought was so cool! Then, we went into this decorated room where we had hot chocolate and punch. The kids decorated an ornament and looked at all the neat things in the room. Mrs. Clause came out and gave everyone a snowman shaped cookie and then we sang some Christmas carols. I know, it sounds cheesy as can be, but Cameron was smiling the whole time and had a lot of fun! When we sang "Santa Claus is Coming to Town," he came in the room. They called us by tables to do pictures and gave us pictures of the kids with Santa. Cameron asked for the car, Boost, from the movie. We can't find it anywhere, we are now bidding on E-Bay for the thing. He thought he'd get it right then and wanted to know where it was. It was funny. I didn't think Cam would get on Santa's lap. There were other young kids crying and I was going to put them on his lap, crying or not really quickly, but both kids did great. We had to take them off his lap.
Later, they brought in a penguin that the kids could look at up close and Cam loved that too. He said the penguin was 'beautiful.' Then, we went on a safari....the kids had to go to 7 stations in different buildings and get a stamp there. At each station they had an animal out that they could learn about and touch. It was really neat and Cameron was pretty excited about it.
