Ahh...the joy lights can bring!

Andalyn LOVES Christmas lights!! It has been her favorite thing about this season so far. For that reason, Dave and I decided to take the kids to "Dove Wood Ct.". It is a very popular Court in Orangevale that the whole street goes ALL OUT...I mean, they don't leave anything untouched!! For those of you who want a great family activity that is FREE it is worth the drive! It is off of Madison Ave and Walnut.

Once we got there, we parked the car, bundles the kids up and walked around Dove Wood Court.

Andalyn and Daddy! They are quite a pair.


Andalyn with the Christmas penguin.


Little Ryan enjoying the lights...sorry about the pink stroller buddy.


My super cute kids enjoying all of the decorations.


Andalyn found some Dancing snowmen and decided to join them...


Here is a video of her moves with the snowmen...


Along with all of the festive lights and decorations, there is a house that focuses on our Saviors birth. I was so proud that Andalyn knew who all of the statues were in the Nativity!


Some people go way over the top...but we really enjoy it. This video is an example of that! This is set up in someones garage!!



We ended the night with some yummy hot chocolate...one of my favorite things about this time of year.

Andalyn with her hot chocolate not to mention a chocolate face.


We had such a great time....and it's all that Andalyn can talk about....so guess where we are going again tonight...yep to Dove Wood Court, see you there!
