Train Park

I guess at least it hasn't been a month since I last updated. That's something, right? Never mind that these pictures I'm about to post were from New Year's Eve. I had planned on posting them last time I updated, but I ran out of time.

John had to work on New Year's Day, so I had planned on taking the kids to Noon Year's Eve at the zoo, and my mom was going to come with us. She came to our house then we drove to the zoo. Madhouse doesn't even begin to describe it. We parked--the furthest away I've ever parked at the zoo--got out the stroller, walked up to the entrance and saw that the line was literally out the proverbial door. There really isn't a door to the zoo, but there is a bridge you walk across to get there, and the line went all the way across that. NUTS!!! Will was really sad, but Gaga and I did not have it in us to fight a crowd like that to play in a little snow and have a pretend toast at noon. So we went to the train park instead, which is one of Will's most favorite places. It was still decorated for Christmas which was neat to see. Next year instead of going to the Polar Express we're just going to the train park!
