Well, it is a tradition for New Mexico. They go to the zoo on Christmas Eve and it is free. Kind of nice to be able to do something different and get outside. The first time they went was Christmas Eve 2005. Their Grandma Rose was visiting us our first Christmas in New Mexico and is in the picture on the left.
They visited the zoo just before we left in July of 2005. I include this picture because they wanted to recreate it when they went to the zoo today but couldn't find it before they left. They were close.
Here is the 2016 Christmas Eve picture.
