B and I didn’t get back from Minnesota until early on New Years Eve morning…C picked us up from the airport and we enjoyed a nice quiet day being back at home.
Some friends were gracious to invite all three of us to their New Year’s party…We enjoyed some good company & great food…
B even got to party with his new friend H!
We were home by about 9:00pm, B was in bed by 9:15pm and C & I were sound asleep by about 10:30pm…we tried to watch Times Square on television but didn’t quite make it…maybe next year!
On New Years Day we branched out and enjoyed breakfast at a bagel shop near TCU (the bakery down the street was closed). Sitting in the booth made me nostalgic for coffee dates and study time while at TCU.
B’s bib is from a dear friend in Minnesota…she wants him to grow up knowing that he has some “Minnesotan” in him!
After breakfast B helped me get some laundry done, I guess that helping with all of our laundry is one of his New Years resolutions!
Later, B got to experience the animals at the zoo for the first time! We couldn’t have hand-picked a nicer day to explore at the zoo…
We “moved” in as we used the stroller as our pack mule!
The cheetahs…
The gorillas…
The elephants…
The giraffes…
The birds…
The flamingos…
Visiting the zoo was a fantastic way to ring in the New Year…it was such a gift to be able to experience the zoo and all the animals through B’s eyes…not to mention awesome to see God’s creativity first hand. We can’t begin to imagine how much more learning will take place in B’s little mind as this year progresses…
