We have had a crazy start to our Christmas season already. We got out for the annual "Light up the Square" event in downtown Bowling Green. Justin was working at Spencer's that night, so our friend Priscilla came along to help corral the boys. We stopped first to see the nativity scene. Lewis loves fake people of all kinds, but seemed frustrated by the gate that kept him from actually touching the baby Jesus and everyone else. I think here he was saying something like, "Hey, Jesus!"
Priscilla holding Owen while he looked at the lights. He really loved the lights this year. He was mesmerized.
We ran into our friends, the Cahoons.
Some other friends, Whitney Winkler and Stephen Gordon, played some music at the event.
Owen liked the music. It was a cold, but fun night!
Then on Saturday, the boys and I headed out to the Christmas parade when Justin had to help out at the shop again. Lewis loved the parade. He loved the marching bands especially, but the candy some of the people handed out was also appreciated.
Later that day we went to the train depot for the model train show. Both boys LOVED seeing the trains.
Lewis spent quite a bit of time trying to get a train placed on the track correctly so that it would go. It took a while, but he got it! On Sunday, we went to Shepherdsville for the annual Shepherd family Christmas party. We forgot to take pictures, but it was a good time.
On Monday, I got to go on my first field trip with Lewis. His class went to the mall. They rode the escalator at Macy's, then the carousel, and then they got to see Santa. Lewis definitely liked the first two things better than the last. He loved the carousel and laughed giddily as they went around and up and down.
He was not impressed by Santa, but sat on his lap briefly. If we get that picture, we'll definitely post it!
We also took some random pics in front of the Christmas tree in their matching vests from Grandma Shepherd. They are so silly!
