CHRISTMAS EXTRAVAGANZA

Following the Parade every year they have an Extravaganza where they have booths set up for vendors and local businesses to do Christmas Crafts for the kids, a photo op with Santa and a snow area where the kids can go in and have a snowball fight. That obviously is their favorite part until their hands get too cold. This year the boys were all old enough to really enjoy it, especially because their dad was here to fight with. They were so excited. Shari and Tyler even joined in on the snowball fight. Kierra really enjoyed watching the craziness of it all and got to even touch snow for the first time-even if it was "man made." Santa was on a Fire Truck this year, previous years he has been on a motorcycle. The kids enjoyed making ice cream cone Christmas trees, decorating sugar cookies, petting the animals at the petting zoo, getting tattoos, making bell necklaces, and doing other little craft projects. It was fun and the kids really enjoyed it. We really look forward to this time of year.

Everyone was after Aunt Shari! HAHA She put up a good fight though!

Kierra just loved watching she wasn't sure what to make of all those crazy people throwing that white stuff around.
