New Year's Eve, before I had to go to the airport, we headed off to the zoo for Zoo Lights. The Oregon Zoo puts on quite the show and this year didn't disappoint.
We get there before the zoo closes and see the animals, which Noam loves. He hadn't napped that day and was Mr. Active. Roo was snuggled up asleep.
The lights are fun to see before it gets dark, but once the sun goes down the true beauty is revealed.
This year I had way too much fun taking pictures of the gorgeous lights along the walk ways.
I may or may not have sat on the ground for 10 minutes taking pictures of these...
Ronan eventually woke up and was fascinated by all the lights. He was just staring in awe. I can't blame him, the zoo goes all out and creates a magical place to wander about.
This is such a special Oregon tradition. Makes the memories of my last night with these cuties so much more special!

Oh I love your evening shots of the lights! That is my favorite part of the holiday season.
Wow that place looks incredible!
WHAT A fun visit to the zoo and it does look as if it was so colorful. Looks as if you had so much fun with the kids
A wonderful, and memorable, way to end your visit with you nephews! You will DEF always be "the fun Aunt" in their eyes.
wow that looks cool. I was just thinking to myself wondering why our zoo doesn't do that!
So much fun Tamar- I love places like that.
Great that you took the time to visit and experience the gorgeous light show with your family. :)
Oh, I loved zoo lights when my were younger...We have this wonderful festival of lights at Christmas time just one city over, but unfortunately I missed it this year because of illness...such fun shots!
That's spectacular! I'm sure it is quite a sight to behold! Love your captures!
Wow! What delightful photos of lights of all colors! Your family is just precious, with those 2 little cuties.
These are really cool lights! Next time we ever are in OR, we will definitely have to visit the zoo there. We wanted to, but just didn't have the time.
These look so cool!!
The lights are so pretty. You have a wonderful family. I am glad you have so much love in your life.
Happy Wednesday Tamar.

They do this at the Baton Rouge zoo too! I've yet to actually visit, and by that I mean the Baton Rouge zoo ever, but I'd love to go and see all the holiday lights one year!
