As I mentioned before we tried to do as much Christmas stuff as possible this year since we were flying solo. The week of Christmas John was technically on call Monday through Wednesday but he didn't really have much to do so Tuesday we headed to Zilker Park. We were able to ride the train, which of course all the kids loved. I really wish we had gotten EZ in this first picture but alas we got some guys backside instead.
EZ wanted to sit with his friend and not his uncool family.
The reason we decided to head to Zilker Park is because they have this huge Christmas Tree made out of lights. In the past they have had a huge light trail, which they canceled, so if you saw that this might now be that exciting, but we missed it so we were pretty stoked to see the tree.
We were sitting under it when they lit it and it was pretty sweet. I guess you are supposed to stand under it and spin in a circle and then fall down or something and look up. We left that to the kids.
Of course they were selling stuff there. They had this amazing kettle corn that was surprisingly cheap. We will go back next year just for that stuff. There was also a guy selling glow sticks and other glowing stuff. I don't remember where we were but a while back EZ was begging for a light-up sword which of course we denied him because they are way overpriced and usually fall apart right away. In the spirit of Christmas and because I was just tired of fighting him we let him get one this time and he loves it. Amazingly it still works and it keeps King entertained so it is worth it's weight in gold.
Finally, here is just a funny pic of King. Babies are so flexible.
