We went to Lake Farmpark's Country Lights again this year. It is one of Andrew's favorite places to go and a lot of fun at the holidays. My parents, the kids and I, our cousin, megan, my sister, her boyfriend, Aaron, and his son, Justin all went. My dad had to get tickets early because it sells out every year. Last night (a Monday) they sold over 800 tickets and were sold out! We got there and first saw Santa Claus, walked around the model train, then waited in line to make a wooden toy in Santa's workshop. From there we rode in a horse drawn carriage around the farmpark to see the Christmas lights and were dropped off at the Well-Bred Shed. There were lots of farm animals for petting in the barn, pony rides and a horse show. We had so much fun!! 
Andrew waiting patiently and nervously (hand in pocket) with his daddy doll to see Santa.
Ava was first up and she was curious, but her curiosity turned to tears rather quickly.
Our Family Picture for 2008... with 'Chaz' and all!
Andrew telling Santa what he wanted for Christmas... including a cow... a real one!! 
Our cousin Megan taking her turn on Santa's lap.
Nannie and Papa sitting with Ava as we waited for our turn to make a toy in Santa's workshop.
Andrew making his tractor (what else?!?!)
Painting his tractor green! Surprisingly, he got more paint on the toy than he did on himself!
Aaron and Justin working on a train.
Andrew went right up to the pony for a ride!!
Petting the sheep... this is a first for Andrew! Out of all the visits we've made to the farm in Andrew's two and a half years, this is the first time he pet any of the animals!
Brrrrr... it was cold at the farm!

Back at home with the finished toy... thanks Auntie Ashlie for adding all the glitter and sparkle! The tractor leaves a nice trail wherever it goes!
