On Friday night we went down to Town Center to see Santa arrive. He came into town on a horse drawn sleigh and he helped light the gigantic Christmas tree that was there. He then went into his house to greet the children (for a nomial fee of course). There was even snow. In fact I had to chuckle because I was standing on fake grass looking at a fake tree, with fake snowflakes falling on us. At least they try to create the image of a white Christmas here. I was afraid that we were going to miss the big event, but Brian did some awesome (and probably somewhat illegal) driving to get us there in time. It was a fun night, but I have to admit that I felt the festivites were a bit premature considering that it is November 15th and we haven't even celebrated Thanksgiving yet. I guess the Christmas season is just around the corner and I need to face the facts and get prepared!

Time to face the facts...Christmas is less than 6 weeks away. You've got to get out there and do your share to boost the economy by spending, spending,....
Love to see pictures of the girls. You are 1 busy mom.
Looks like fun! I love Town Center - It is a cute place! It does seem a little early though...You guys should try the Ethel M Chocolate place if you haven't before - They have lots of lights and Santa is there without much of a crowd and you get a free chocolate. We always loved going there at Christmas
