Our walk started out kind of crazy though. One of the first houses we came by at the start had this cool Polar express train set-up. Well, of course our littlest little boy went right up there to look, and I didn't realize that his foot had gotten caught on the cord. See those huge bulbs right in front of him? (in the picture below) Yeah,before we knew it the sound of glass shattering echoed through the night, and one of those huge bulbs was toast. I couldn't believe it! My heart sank, I felt so bad. I never thought we'd break somebody's light display. I was mostly worried about being able to replace it. Well, we went up and knocked on the door to apologize and ask how much we could pay them for it. The people were so nice and understanding. They said those lights stopped working anyway, so we didn't owe them anything. We helped clean it up, and ended up having a really nice conversation with them. So thankful for nice and understanding people!
I loved that it was actually a pretty decent night for weather too! It wasn't freezing, or raining! A double plus for Oregon.
Aaron really liked this runway for Santa...
Cute gingerbread house!
I really liked these white silhouette creches.
We tried to steer clear of any lights at the edge of the lawn during the whole walk, but he was too cute sitting here. I had to take his picture before telling him to please get away from the lights.
Amazing!
If I had a light display I think I'd like to include the Eiffel tower.
This house is pretty and for sale! Sometimes I think it would be fun to live on this Christmas light route.
It was a fun family night. I think we'll walk it every year if we can.
