Our tree and gifts
Gingerbread houses
We visited the zoo a couple days before Christmas to see the new African exhibit.
I found these along the way.
Decorating cookies with friends
A cute parting shot. We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas.
The water was actually quite cold (probably like California water in the summer)
Some nice looking birds. I don't remember what they are.
Mark caught a few waves.
Chillin' on the beach.
Witnie loved the petting pools (as long as she didn't have to actually pet anything)
Maddie by a nurse shark.
Witnie and a big, ugly fish.
Sydnie got called up on stage during this program. They got her all dressed up in protective gear and teased her about holding a crazy animal. Then she got to help feed this anteater.
We got to watch a diver feed the fish in this tank.
The otters were Maddie's favorite.
The stingray petting pools.
That day was pretty chilly due to the wind.
We found some of Tarzan's children.
That's ok because it was a beautiful day and we had tinfoil dinners to cook.
There were pecans from the trees all over the ground so we gathered a few.
The little girls and I took a walk while Maddie and Mark (on my bike) took a ride.
I thought this picture turned out great.
We did look like ragamuffins today.
I made these for a baby shower. They are chocolate covered oreos.
Witnie is slightly attached to these. She is actually right handed, but the dolls are more important.
Witnie has a very high opinion of Halloween.
All the little fairies. I especially love Sydnie's smile.
Witnie and Luke chillin'. 
Maddie had a race last week.
