We had the best time last night. A nearby town has a quaint little Christmas celebration. It includes a horse drawn sleigh ride, visits from Mr and Mrs Claus, hot cocoa, cider and a scavenger hunt. We met a few friends at the celebration. Bob, Ollie and I arrived before the rest of our group so we walked down the street to check out the Christmas lights. On our way back up to meet our friends, we saw an awesome little toys store. Of course, Bob couldn't resist and Ollie got an awesome gift. You can check that out in another post!
We met the soon to be Haire family and the Stewarts at a pizzeria. It was quite a wait even though Lindsey had called ahead but the food was well worth it. While we were there, Santa made an appearance! Ollie was too frightened to be held by Santa but he did pose for a picture while I held him.
After dinner, we headed back down the street to get pictures by the tree and to try to get a sleigh ride. Unfortunately, the sleigh ride tickets were sold out! Boo! I tried to take ollie up to pet the horses since he had been so infatuated with them all night but he screamed bloody murder. Poor, traumatized baby!
As the picture poising began with Lindsey and Justin, Justin got down on his knee in front of the dazzling Christmas tree and asked Lindsey to spend the rest of her life with him! It was such a perfect moment. I am so very excited for them. Click on Lindsey's name to hear her rendition of the evening.
We finished the evening with hot cocoa and cookies before heading home. We will definitely be back next year.
