Dreamnight at the Sacramento Zoo

On Friday, June 3, Greg and I took the boys to Dreamnight at the Sacramento Zoo. This is a free event put on for families with children with disabilities. We had it on our calendar for the prior month, but the weather was iffy that day so we weren't sure if we would go or not. But in the end, we decided it was good for us to all go so we could spend some quality time together as a family before Greg and I leave on our trip.

It was such a fun event! There were different groups there handing out stuffed animals, hats, ice cream, Chipotle was giving out chips/guacamole. They really went all out to make sure it was a fun time for these kids. What a great thing! And, what is really cool is that it didn't even seem to phase Kyler that there were lots of kids in wheelchairs, or had other equipment. I love being in settings like this where he is exposed to so many things. It helps him be more accepting of the differences between all of us.

Kyler begged to ride the carousel which we have never done there before. So we got 2 tickets so he and Caden could both go. Obviously Caden couldn't go by himself so Greg went also. Both the kids really loved it and laughed most of the time. We had a really good time and are so glad we went.

I know this is a little blurry but it's so cute I had to put it in!
