Mommy/daughter picture opp! |
Mia and I have Christmas traditions, just like most people do. But our most favorite thing to do during the Christmas season, is going out in search of Christmas lights! The other night, we headed down to Freeport to check out their light setup.
Their tree is enormous, and lit with red and green lights. I tried to get a picture of Mia in front of it to depict it's gargantuan size, but she was having too much fun running around the cluster of small trees up on the wooden deck. The picture below should show it's size in relation to the building behind it.
Next year, I think we should have a tree like this in OUR living room! |
They also had some "Kid's Crooked Houses" set up for the kiddos to play around in. These things are so cute, and come in a ton of designs and sizes.
Kids Crooked Houses! We want one, or two! |
Mia thought they were pretty neat also, and had fun playing around in them!

The best part of the gigantic L.L. Bean tree, is that every hour on the hour, from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., the tree and surrounding lights become a light show with some great music playing along. Mia loved this, and loved the fact that we were outside watching instead of sitting in a car like some other light shows!
The video below is short, as I had to keep an eye on Miss Mia, but in total the show lasted about 20 minutes.
What are some of your favorite holiday traditions?!
Wow how awesome! I am so sorry I have been absent! I love your new site update! How are you guys? We are making new holiday traditions every year. This year we pick out new ornaments.
ReplyDeleteThat's a cool tradition! Maybe Mia and I will borrow that idea. It seems that I always want something new for our tree. :) No worries about the absence. I know how it is to have a new baby around. I hope all is well with you and your beautiful family!
