Zoo Lights

So much fun to experience Zoo Lights at the Oregon Zoo with a fun family from our Ward.

 Loved walking through this light tunnel. 

 

Riding the train, admiring the multi colored lights on the tree trunks,  finding the lights that looked like animals, seeing the animation that made the 'light animals' come to life....all those things were memorable.  But sharing the fun with these cute kids made it extra special. 

And the best part I felt like a famous person when each of the 3 littlest all wanted a picture 'by myself with Marilyn'! The 3 year old.... 

 The 5 year old....

The 7 year old.... 

A good time was had by all ages!  I think George and I have a new tradition! 

#36 Graduates and Hello to #37

#36 graduated on Sunday and went home with the young man he will guide for the next 8 - 10 years.  Doesn't he look smart in his new harness? 

This sweet, social dog will love going to college with his new grad.  Don't you know that he will be the enter of attention in every class.....and a great chick magnet!  The woman with the papers in her hand was the lead trainer for the class that just finished their training.  The other two are his excellent puppy raisers.    They deserve a lot of credit for raising a dog so prepared to learn.  #36 had impeccable manners!  

Well almost impeccable manners, he was wildly excited to see us again!  We sure love this boy and are so proud of the little part we played in getting him ready to be a life changing addition to a very nice man's life. 

And here is #37....only here in our home for an hour but already settling in.   Can anyone think of a better volunteer job?  I can't!
