Christmas Lights

Tonight we met the Ratcliffes and the Pickells for dinner and then went to the Festival of Lights at the VanDusen Botanical Garden. It was a lot of fun - cold, but not rainy, and the kids had a blast!

Livingstone Lake in the middle of the gardens . . .














Walking on the paths . . . the 3 older girls (Holly, Cassie & Isabelle) are up front and behind are Mackenzie and Simon.

















Gingerbread Wood . . .














Having fun with Daddy - although he looks a bit stunned . . . too many lights, perhaps?!



















Holly telling Cassie a secret.



















Flying Holly!



















Santa's Living Room - the sign on the door said "Santa Puppeteer", but there were no puppets to be seen! Santa was very friendly, though and told the kids some stories about being Santa, and even read them a book.














We saw two angels as we were leaving . . . =)
