Festival of Lights!

 

Now that Thanksgiving is over (not that I was wishing it away), it is OFFICIALLY okay for me to start celebrating Christmas : ) (Although I already have been for a couple months now) So, this past weekend we went and saw the Charleston Festival of Lights! We tried to go last year, but we waited until too close to Christmas, on a weekend, later in the evening, and got caught in like a 2 mile line, waiting. So, it didn't happen LOL

Here are some pictures! My phone did a better job than my camera, but still not the greatest quality...

(thought of you with this one, Mom)

(Humpty Dumpty)

I think this one was my favorite : )

This one was really cool, too! They had all the animals lined up, 2 by 2...

All of the planets and an alien...Jeremy, our science teacher, was very offended by this layout ; )

Lovebirds  teeter-tottering : )

 

 

 

 ....there was one that said "and to all a good night" but the cars going in the opposite direction blocked my picture : ) 

Yay Christmas-time!!!

Thanksgiving '13

 For our second Thanksgiving in a row, we stayed in South Carolina. Only 4 days off from work doesn't really leave enough time to travel all the way to New York. Last year it was just the two of us, but this year we had 3 friends come over for dinner. We had a blast! Good food, friends, games and laughs. We are very thankful for those we have met while being here. 

We also had a furry little friend to keep us company. Our church's youth pastor and his wife have family out of town, so whenever they travel, we get to "Brady-sit" : ) Our apartment doesn't allow us to have pets, so it's our chance to get our pet fix! I think if we were able to sneak him back home, we would have! We miss our Brady time!

 

 

"It's time to wake up, guys!"

Every time there is an animal of any kind on the TV, he attacks.....

 

: )

We hope you all had a blessed holiday with friends and family!
