Christmas Lights! WOW MOMMY!

So Christmas lights and fireworks are 2 of MY favorite things! And I think Riley maybe following suit! We on the spur of the moment decided to drive through Highland Park Friday night after we ate near there to see a few lights. We knew not everyone would have them up, but it was more of a test drive to see if Riley would really even notice them.

Notice them he did! It was the most adorable thing! Like everything he does is! :)

He was calling the trees - magical trees! Look Mommy! Wow! Magical Trees! Then he was calling the roofs that had just outline lights on them Mountains! Who would have thought of that! But that's why seeing the world again through a child's eyes is one of the greatest things!

One of my fondest memories growing up is riding around with my Grandparents on Christmas Eve looking at Christmas lights with our thermos of hot chocolate! I guess that's part of the reason I'm still so fond of it now! So I can't wait to create some new tradition around that with Riley!
