I'm a sucker for traditions this time of year. Period. From specific foods, to certain decorations to outings, there are just things that make my favorite Holiday even better. One of those in Cleveland is going to see the lighting of the Crocker Park Christmas Tree and Santa's arrival. We've been for the last 4 years in a row and the songs and fireworks make it spectacular. This year the weather wasn't too cold, thankfully, or Ady and I would have watched the show from inside a store while the boys braved it outside.
New this year was Santa being shot out of a canon into a red net. Santa must be super athletic to be that old and able to do that!
Obligatory family picture in front of the lit tree. Unfortunately it's absolutely terrible as I picked the one person who didn't know how to use a camera and we had to use the flash. Ugh. Oh well...it's the memory that counts, right?

Have a wonderful Thanksgiving tomorrow!
What a fun tradition! We used to go downtown Cleveland when I was a kid to see the square light up. I loved it! Such great memories :) Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Sarah!
ReplyDeleteHer cheeks!! Sooo cute! Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteIt's still a great picture! I'm the same way about tradition, things have to be just so or it bugs me. My mom gets mad at me and my brother {my sister's ok with different} because neither of us like it when she changes things up.
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving.
What a fun tradition to have! :)
ReplyDeleteThis is truly the most wonderful time. All the traditions that continues, and the new ones we make. It's THE BEST!!
ReplyDeleteThat first pic of Ady and her big gummy grin? LOVE!
Santa out of a cannon?! That's pretty cool, and I've never seen anything like that. I love doing all the fun activities around Christmas too - they make me so happy!
