On Friday evening, we attended the lighting of the Christmas tree celebration in Chino Hills. There were a lot of school groups that did singing. Then Santa Claus arrived on a fire truck (he had to leave the reindeer at the fire station), and he lit the Christmas tree. As soon as the lights went on, it started snowing! Even though it did actually feel cold (we were wearing boots and sweaters and coats!), of course it wasn't real snow - it was actually soap bubbles (which made us cough after breathing it in for a good half an hour).
Rebecca was enthralled with the snow! I loved the look of wonder on her face as she saw Santa and then the snow.
Despite having hidden her face from Santa at the mall that week when there was no line, she actually wanted to sit on Santa's lap and have a picture when there was a line of about a hundred kids. Fortunately, we were able to convince her to wait when it wasn't so crowded so Santa would be able to concentrate more on her.
We were lucky enough to get this family pic of us in the winter wonderland.
