Busy days with Auntie Carolyn

We've had a lot of fun with Carolyn.

Yesterday, we decorated the porch and put the village up. After, we went to the zoo and visited the baby elephant. She was her usual darling self, rolling around in the hay and munching on snow.

The baby giraffe did the splits to munch on some hay at its feet.

And 2 female monkeys fought over a baby struggling to just be free.

Then we went to the Gateway to see the Christmas Tree (BEAUTIFUL!) and Temple Square to see how the LDS temple's grounds were light up -- trees of every color, v. pretty. The only thing I didn't like, the nativity area was pitch black except for camera flashes. I would have liked to see the life sized nativity and doubt we'll have time to go back.
