I was in full "find a fun activity for the family" mode when I discovered that the Phoenix Zoo had a Noon Year's Eve snow activity for kids. It was sponsored by Disney radio and was going to have pictures, music, entertainment, apple/sparkling cider/cookies, a countdown, SNOW, carosel...the works!! I couldn't resist. So, even though Jase was feeling under-the-weather and wouldn't be able to go with us, I struck out on my own with the two children---fearless!
Well, as soon as we exited the car I knew I had bitten off more than I could chew. It was cold. I mean COLD! And we were going to play in the snow? What! Ok, I hadn't thought this through. But I put on my happy face and guided the children into the park nonetheless :*) After Ash fell down once on the snow he was pretty much done. And Jonah didn't last much longer. But I was determined to make it to noon-the countdown-the whole reason for coming!
