The Festival of Trees

Last night we took in The Festival of Trees with some friends. It was pretty amazing in there! After looking at all of the kiddy activities we decided it probably would have been more fun if our kids were a teensy bit older. It was family night and we did a mini scavenger hunt. We also went and saw Santa, but Camilla looked like she was going to burst into tears at any second, so she didn't sit on his lap. She did hold his bells and shake them though. We'll see how she does with Santa tonight at the Christmas party. 

There was so much to see! Her little legs went nuts all night running/sprinting from one thing to the next. About half way through, Daddy asked if we could trade kids for a while. Camilla was just so excited.

They had a lot of different types of trees and the whole place was lit up! At the front they had a stage with live performances. This one little girl sang and she looked like she was maybe four years old. She sounded amazing! I personally loved the look of this rest area with the floating present Christmas tree.

Just before we left we got our friends to snap a family photo. We exited the display room and joined the crowd in the lobby. You get a prize if you get all the stamps for the scavenger hunt, but we weren't even half way done. Taylor took Camilla and taught her to say, "I tried my best". They then went up to the ladies with the prize bags and she said, "I tried my best" as she handed them her not even half stamped piece of paper and they bought it! She got a treat bag full of goodies, a coloring book and stickers. 

I am now feeling super festive. Two more days until we have a lit up tree of our very own in our living room! I can't wait!!
