Chicks Dig Us

On New Year's Eve, Drew and I got together with my high school friend Heather and her 3 year old son Nikos at the Oakland Zoo (you can read about Heather here - she's also a blogger).  Sadly this was the first play date we've had with the kids - her daughter stayed home to nap.

The boys seemed to hit it off right away.  So we hit up a few animals and then let the kids burn off some energy around the play areas... (yes so Heather and I could talk and catch up).

Here the boys are doing their impersonations of snakes.

It's impossible to get two 3-year olds to look at the camera at the same time.  Nickos was pretty excited about his palm leaf...

After the zoo we hit up a few rides. 

And then the two studs finished the day by cruising for chicks.

It must have been AHS class of '94 day at the zoo.  We were joined by a few former classmates there as well!  One intentionally and the other we ran into by coincidence.  Or maybe we all had the same idea.  Find something to do on New Year's Eve to wear your children out!
