Sixth Day of Christmas

Tonight was one of my favorite nights so far.

We started the evening with a nice dinner out as a family at a restaurant. Yes, a sit down restaurant. I'm so glad that my kids are mostly behaved so that we can go out.


After dinner we drove around town looking at Christmas lights. We stopped got ourselves some Carmel Apple Spice for Starbucks. Its divine if you haven't tried it. I feel like you need cider to properly look at lights. Mostly I just don't like being cold and love an excuse for a warm drink. Bee is only two so I brought a sippy cup of apple juice. He was quite pleased with that.

Our city puts out a tour of lights so we knew where some excellent light displays were. I am not the best navigator so we ended up just driving around aimlessly. We managed to find lots of pretty lights. Bee even says ohhh and ahhh. Sometimes when they are especially good we got a "Wow!"


One of the houses even had the lights timed to music that was broadcasted by radio. Pretty fancy.


We ended up having an extra late night so we just rushed the babes to bed with a Christmas book. They were practically passed right out. I love when that happens.
