We got an unique experience to go see the zoo at night. Once a year the Dallas Zoo reopens at 6pm for a spring animal-style festival, of course. It had been raining all day, but it cleared out for us to make the drive. It was fun to do the carnival games, get Zachary's face painted and to ride the carousel a few times!
Zachary thought it was cool to touch the turtle's shell and legs. He wasn't a fan of touching a snake's shedded skin at the end of the table. A picture of his face would have been priceless.
It was the opening night of "The Ghosts of the Bayou" Exhibit, which featured two babies and one adult albino alligators. We had fun chanting and acting out the Monkeys teasing Mr. Alligator song.
We thought cousin Kelyn might like to see Dumbo again.
I love this family pic. I got Madison to sit on her animal, but she wouldn't have anything to do with it once we started moving. The kids were great for being out past their bedtime.
Watch out for the snake! The face painter started a butterfly on Madison, but she freaked out. Maybe next year. =)
Enjoy seeing Zachary on the Endangered Animal Carousel ride. Madison was in my arms.

Way to go "Wonder Woman" Taking your two little ones out all alone. What a fun time. I loved Zachary's face painting. Proud of him for not wanting to touch the snake skin! What a fun adventure.
Cute Pics! My kids love the zoo. What a fun family event!
Are you going to let him keep the snake on for church? That would totally freak out the girls!
We'll have to go with you next year. It looks like it was great fun even though the weather was questionalbe earlier in the day. Loved having you guys over to play earlier today!
Very active child.
