Tonight our town had their Christmas festival and since it was 70 degrees out, it was packed. The firehouse had Santa, there was a stage full of singers belting out Christmas songs, lots of food and crafts, and a ton of kids activities. It was definitely the most fun Christmas festival I have ever been to and activities like this make me thankful to have a child who can enjoy them. I just love how emotional James is about everything. He's comically scared of Santa but loves the walking character snowman, wants to ride the carousel but is totally beside himself when there is only horses and not other animals he can ride, and cannot get enough of the bounce houses. At this age he shows his emotions without thought or care - I wish I could be like that!
