It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas

We are in full Christmas mode at the Sanders' house.  We put up our Christmas tree on the Saturday after Thanksgiving.  This is pretty early for us, so we are starting things off right this year. 










Our hometown Christmas parade is always a much-anticipated event of the season.  It was made even more special this year by the presence of my nephews, who were staying with Gigi and Papa for the weekend.


 Daddy parked his truck in our usual spot, and the Clarks were only two cars down from us.  There were definitely no shortage of kids to hang out with.




The parade was good, as always.  The kids enjoyed watching the floats, getting candy, and shouting "Merry Christmas" at everyone.

 After the parade, we walked over to the "Christmas in the Park" event.  There was music, activities, and lots of things to do.  We walked around and checked things out.  Before leaving, we hit up the food trucks for some supper.  I let the kids pick their meal, and of course no one wanted things from the same place.  We ended up patronizing three different food establishments before we all got our preferred dinner.  It was a fun night and a great way to kick off the month of December.
