Christmas Lights


Today was our first big snowstorm of the season. It started snowing early early this morning and continued on through the early afternoon. I was grateful that it is a Saturday and we were able to stay at home and watch it, instead of having to be out in it. Its much prettier from a home than in a car. Since it let up early enough we decided to take the train downtown and see the Christmas lights. Ryan was so good on the train. Especially the train ride home. It was so much fun to see him surrounded by Christmas lights all bundled up in his stroller and just stare at the lights. Of course he had his binki in, I swear he looks like Maggie Simpson, just sucking on the binki. We had a great time. The lights were especially pretty because of the fresh snow on all of them. For the Rytting family...it looks like the Pine tree off of the Christmas Joy record that dad used to play growing up except underneath it was covered in lights.

Ali, I love how you get out there and experience life. What a good mommy you are for your little Ryan.

How pretty...I'm sure you had to bundle up. What a great evening to see the lights with all the fresh snow. It was fun to see you the other day. I will have to give you a ring the next time I'm around your place : ).

Great pictures. Makes me cold to look at them, but so pretty. It is 77 degrees here in Dallas today. . .
