Hometown Holiday 2010

The town we live in is always putting together community activities for the families around here and for the Hometown Holiday 2010, they didn't disappoint.

We were running late, so by the time we arrived for the Candy Cane Hunt, they were all out of candy canes. No biggie..we just moved on to the next event, which was a show at the ampitheatre.

We saw an orchestra playing Christmas carols...


...enjoyed a mini-performance of the Nutcracker...


...lit some candles while we sang Silent Night (not pictured: Milo getting a little rowdy with the lit candle)...


And at the end of the show, Santa arrived in his golf cart.


We then took part in a golf cart procession (this is the view from ours) and followed Santa to City Hall where we watched them light the "big 'ole" Christmas tree.


And since I have no idea what happened to the video I took of the lighting of the tree...here's another of Santa after we arrived at City Hall. This is where the little kids got to sit on his lap. My kids, however, refused to and just stared at him from afar.
