Deck the Halls

Christmas at the Square

After Thanksgiving, we decided to try out Lockport Park District's Christmas at the Square event this year. It was a nice sunny day, although brisk, and we wanted to go check out the scene. They had live reindeer, Santa and his helpers, a wood carver, sleigh ride, mini train ride, and more inside activities that we didn't venture in to do due to our love our crowds. Although it felt like most of our time there was spent standing in line, the event was still fun. The best part was Dad's call on our way home though that mom had come home from the hospital that afternoon-yeah!

 

On the sleigh ride, crammed into one bench!

Hannah's Brownie Troop Trim-a-Tree

Hannah had a beautiful day for her first Brownie troop trim-a-tree at Brookfield Zoo. The girls all got together and hung the ornaments they had made at their meetings. It was cute and Hannah loves her Brownie buddies! After the tree trimming a few of us walked around the zoo since it was so nice out and checked out the animals. We got to see the seals and sea lions being fed, and lots of the other animals were out and about too.
