Each year we give the kids a polar express ticket and then we go look at lights. Coleman had been really excited for us to this so I knew we couldn't skip it, even though the kids were pretty grumpy and fighting a lot the week before Christmas and I didn't want them staying up late because then they get grouchier. We usually put the tickets on their pillows and they find them as they are getting in bed. The kids all ran downstairs to play after dinner so we decided to put the tickets on the table to find before they had snack. That way we left by 7 and were home not too much later than 8 :)
Coleman was so excited and starting yelling and jumping around when he saw the tickets.
Doug punched holes in the their tickets.
Doug found a house in Maple Valley that has its lights go along with music. It was really cool, way better than I expected. It had a lot of songs and a snowman that sang some of the songs.The kids loved it too. A few of the them were kind of unhappy about "just going to look at Christmas lights" but they all ending loving it!
