lights.

last night we went to our town square. we have one of the most beautiful courthouses. and there are a ton of lights up. on the courthouse itself, and hanging in trees, etc.

when we got out of the car, and pratt saw everything for the first time...close up. he sort of gasped and then let out this little squeal of delight. it was so cute. he loved it!

they were giving horse and buggy rides last night, but we arrived too late for that. we did see santa. but from afar. mrs. clause was there last night too, but i doubt she would have been much help to little pratt. wife or not, santa is pretty freaky.

pratt got to pet his first pony. well, i think they were ponies. clint kept referring to them as "saline county reindeer". which was funny to me. but not really to the girl in charge of the animals. she didn't really get it.

after seeing all the lights we walked across the street to our church. where they have the baby jesus and the manger scene. there was a plaque in front of it. with local churches and individuals listed as being a part of the group who puts it on display every year.

it was late when we left. pratt wanted to walk everywhere and it just got too cold. this is the result of cold, being tired and not being allowed to get down from his daddy's arms.



we ended the night by going by starbucks. caramel apple spice. yummy.
