We took the kids over to an exhibit called “Electricritters” at the zoo tonight. I didn’t really know what to expect, but it was a lot of fun! It’s hard to get good pictures of a lights show, so some of the pictures really show off the lights and in others you can see the kids faces, but I’m not sure I got any with both.

Electricritters sign! Plus Kari’s family in front. You can’t see them at all.

Will with a giant snake. Obviously one of his favorite displays.

3D gorilla swinging from a tree! And some enthralled kids underneath.

Kalena with a peacock.

A fire-breathing dragon. (Another favorite of Will’s, of course.)

Not dressed up in lights, but Hey! Kids on a camel statue!

Most of the displays were somewhat animated: penguins throwing snowballs, a beaver chopping down a tree, a crocodile eating a bird. The kids enjoyed it thoroughly in spite of the cold. And then we got to come home and have cake for all the winter-time birthdays! All in all an excellent evening.
