Prairie Lights

Thanksgiving night my mom and I took Jane to see the Christmas lights in Grand Prairie. There is a drive through lights display called "Prairie Lights" out there.

You can't tell from this pic but this was a really cool part of the drive.

I made the mistake of mentioning to Jane that we might get to see Santa at the Christmas lights display so the ENTIRE time Jane said things like, "I don't see Santa, Mommy" and "Santa, where are you?" Towards the end of the drive there is a spot where you can park and there is a carousel and concessions and there was also a magic show and a walk through portion that we skipped but the REALLY important part was of course Santa. It was fun to see Jane with him because this was the first year she was really excited to see him. She walked up to him like he was a celebrity (which of course he is to a three year old). She jumped up on his lap and told him what she wanted for Christmas and then smiled really big for her picture. If only Santa had been even half as joyful as she was (he was a little humdrum).

Here she is right after her Santa picture. Still reeling from excitement perhaps.
