Riverwoods Lights

We took the kids to the Shops at Riverwoods tonight to walk around and look at Christmas lights.

They were more excited to see the different fires they had set up than the lights.  They remember that from a couple years ago when we went.  It was so cold that last time, we spent a lot of time around the fires.  This year is not nearly as cold.

The kids tried their hand at "water bending" and "fire bending" (we've been watching Avatar: The Last Airbender again lately).

Jeremy and I got a kick out of one spot we stopped at because two shops side by side had the word, "mountain" in their names.  And December 11 is International Mountain Day after all.

Santa was also at Riverwoods so the kids got to sit on his lap and tell him what they wanted for Christmas (again).

And Lucky slept through everything.  It was too dark to get a picture of him in the stroller.  There was a bit of a breeze so we kept a blanket hanging down on the stroller.
We did have fun tonight.  Good family time.
