Children and Christmas Lights

Garvan Gardens, a beautiful botanical garden here in Hot Springs, has the most awesome light display I've ever seen.  They have acres and acres of the forest decorated with lights, toy soldiers, gingerbread houses, model trains running around and around, and even fish made of lights "jumping" up out of the lake.  My grandchildren loved it.  :)

  10. We have something similar here at the Botanical Garden Light Display but yours sounds much more Grand. Don't you love to see things through the eyes of those precious grandchildren? Makes everything so much more special. Hope you and yours has a very Merry Christmas. I've enjoyed getting to know you and some other special Blogland friends. BTW, your profile pic is very flattering! You are a very pretty lady!
