Last weekend my amazing husband surprised our family by taking us to Leavenworth for the Christmas Tree lighting celebration, and to stay the night. Unfortunately, we didn't take little Gibson because it was too cold for him, even with a snow suit!
Leavenworth is a place that is breathtaking, especially at Christmas time. It is impossible to not get into the spirit of the season when you have snow falling all around, Santa hugging the children, kids sledding on the hill, the smell of chestnuts roasting, Christmas music playing through the town, and of course all the phenomenal decorations (doesn't that description just fit every Christmas cliche'!)
It was an awesome experience, except for the fact that my independent little pistol of a daughter REFUSED to put on gloves and a hat, even when she was freezing! Besides that, it was great. Corey sure knows how to win his two favorite girls over!

Madison thought we were in the North Pole, she was wondering where all the elves and reindeer were!
Look at all that snow!!
