So jump on the bus.
There’s the sign, so we know we are here.
There have to be rules.
Great sign.
Of course, the Grinch is here.
Decorate cookies.
Ride the bucking reindeer.
Write a letter to Santa.
Visit the Bookmobile.
There is a band.
Mini donut cakes
Craigo’s pizza.
Hot chocolate.
BBQ
Marshmallows for smores.
Mayor Kilgore and Santa are ready to light the display.
The lights are on.
Trails of lights.
Beautiful lights.

Time now for some food and music. I hope you have a great week.
Gorgeous lights! Thanks for Jimmy Buffet. Dogs and I enjoyed dancing to this one. 😍🌲🐶🐶
