Christmas Lights!

We went to Rock Springs Park over in Alton to see their Christmas lights display. We were very impressed and highly recommend it! Of course the battery in my camera was dead but I at least had my point-in-shoot with me to take some pictures.
 One display that was really cool is when you went over this little bridge, it looked like a  tiny version of the Alton bridge! They did a very good job of recreating it!

About three-fourths of the way through you can stop and see Santa Clause and feed some animals. We weren't gonna see Santa since Keegan has already seen him this year but since he was in the same building that you get the food to feed the animals, we decided to get a family picture. We put Keegan on Santa's lap and Eric and I squatted down on each side of Santa. Well, Keegan still didn't like Santa so Eric picked him up and held him which was know big deal. Well, I wish I would have picked Keegan up because then Santa asked ME to sit on his lap. I haven't sat on his lap in a very long time! But I decided to not fuss about it and just sit down to get our family picture taken with Santa. Afterwards we went out and fed some donkeys and baby goats. And of course my back up camera went dead right when I was about to take Eric and Keegan's picture with the animals. Oh well maybe next year I will make sure I charge them before we go.

As we were about done, there was then a Christmas tree contest that all different grades from different schools competed in. So they gave you a piece of paper to write down your vote that you then turned in at the end. There were some very good ones and was a little hard to choose from.

We had a great time and will definitely be back next year!

The pictures do not do the lights justice.

I loved that they had American Flag!

This sea serpent with the castle was super cute in person!

Our family picture with Santa!

If this baby goat had a bath, I would want to give it a huge!
