Silver Dollar Christmas

We wanted to take the boys to Silver Dollar city one more time before the baby came, once she comes we won't be getting out as much.  I'm to much of a hermit.  We also wanted to see all the Christmas lights and so we waited until I wasn't sure how safe it'd be to travel far from home this late in the game. 
Silver Dollar City is always fun, the rides the boys love and they are just so happy to be outside and going and going until they can't go any more.  But this time of year the atmosphere changes, its cooler which is nice, and the lights are out which are amazing.  I don't know who puts up all those lights but they deserve a pat on the back its a lot of work. 


The Christmas tree when you walk in is huge!  To my boys its so high, in their words, "bigger than any house, way up in the sky!"   
One of the rides Garrett really likes and is just tall enough to ride is the Pirate ship, it goes back and forth and gives you that funny feeling in your stomach.  He sat down and was beaming from ear to ear, so excited for it start. 



We found the fun little gingerbread cut outs and Brady really wanted his picture taken so when they are for it we do it!  Gotta take advantage of children who  are willing to cooperate. 

We had such a good time and by the end of the day my feet were hurting and I was feeling the labor pains come on so we headed to a restaurant to eat at and then headed home.  Over all it was a fun day and I am glad we could do it one last time for a while!

Brigham and Isaac liked seeing these pictures. It looked like it was a fun day. Brady and Garrett are lucky boys to get to do such fun things.
