We tried to partake in the annual Christmas Tree Lighting at Hurkamp Park downtown this past Friday. I'd say it was a holiday cheer fail. This is the best picture I have of that night. 'Nuff said.
It was said to start at 6pm. We walked there by 6:20pm and nothing was happening other than quite a few people/kids standing around looking antsy. Then Santa showed up on a fire truck and greeted people like he was on drugs. He then took the stage and gave the anxious crowd a speech about our towns history, starting his walk through time with events from 150 years ago, really? Can't you hear the kids screaming and babies crying?! We looked around to see if we could spy the tree they would be lighting. Nope, couldn't find one. We left and had a nice walk home through town. You can't see in the picture, but Izabella has a Scooby Doo Shirt on, and is holding a sequined purse of hers. Stylin'.
-------------------------
We stopped by to see my momma before heading to Grandma's house for Thanksgiving dinner. I didn't bring new flowers, daughter fail. Izabella got to meet her Grandma Sue for the first time though. She appropriately danced on her grave (without instruction to do so from us) and told her she loved her. "I yuv eew granma ooo". It melted my heart.
Little monster during game time Thanksgiving day. She was active to say the least. So many fragile/handle with care items at Grandma's house. Yikes. Enjoying my photo.graphy skills? Thought so.
