Christmas - Part 1 - Hollywild

... thinking about how to blog our Christmas activities since I neglected to do it when it happened. So, here is goes- in chronological order.

Wednesday night we decided semi-last minute to go to Hollywild and look at the lights and see the animals. Chad and I had been once before when we were just married. Mom, Dad, and Nolan agreed to go with us so off we went, all 8 of us in our van.

Thankfully we got there right when it opened and only had to wait 5 minutes or so to drive through. When we were leaving, traffic was backed up for at least a mile and that was only one of the 3 ways to get in.

The lights were nice but the highlight of the trip were the animals just strolling about while you drive through.
You are probably thinking- "what is so special about a cow?"

Maybe this picture will explain it- Yes, the cow is as big as that Ford Expedition.

Some more of the animals- Zebras and there were also tons and tons of deer

Towards the end of the light show you can get out of your car and go see animals that are behind a fence. There were camels, llamas, horses, cows, bulls, goats, etc.
