Snow Day at the Zoo

This is the 3rd year we've been to the zoo on their annual Snow Day. The first year, we met up with my high school friend Amal, and got to meet her family. The second year, it was just the 3 of us, enjoying a sunny day at the zoo. This year, Todd and I went by ourselves, since the zoo decided to hold Snow Day on a Sunday instead of the usual Saturday, and Allan had to help out at church. The boy and I enjoyed the usual antics of throwing snowballs and building snowmen (I even built a snow turtle!). This year, the zoo added something new: an iceless skating rink!

Todd has never even rollerskated before, much less ice skated, but here he is, giving the it a try, with sunny green trees and mountains in the backdrop :-)
