Caldwell's Annual Christmas Tree Lighting


We attended the Christmas Tree lighting again this year. It was freezing!!! As you can see we're all bundled up. But it was beautiful! Beginning in October they wrap lights around all the trees and bridges around the creek down town. This year they estimated using 400,000 - 500,000 strings of lights! Amazing! We really enjoy going because it kicks off the Christmas season nicely and is quickly becoming a fun family tradition.

Here is Wisdom so bundled up he can hardly move in his carseat! 
 Visiting Santa and Mrs. Claus. Kindly asked for baby doll clothes and other accessories. Passion asked for a Leapster Explorer and Go Go my walking talking pup.
 Wisdom didn't even cry when he sat on Santa's lap! Seriously, my first child ever not to cry at this age!
 It was so cool that they had a camel there this year! Look at how huge it is. The girls are standing just a couple feet from it.
 And all the lights!
The pictures don't do it justice but I had to include some anyway. So beautiful!

What a fun family tradition!! We use to do something similar in the town I grew up in, though it was nothing as big as that! Glad to hear what Kindly asked for, I think she'll like our gift :) Love the pics! And glad to hear I wasn't the only one surprised to find they enjoyed the Bieber's Xmas song!! haha

I love the lights downtown, there are SO many! Way to go Wisdom for not crying with Santa, seriously impressive - Cami didn't fair as well this year.
