Minivan Express 2015

It's hard to believe we've been doing the minivan express for 5 years. It's one of our favorite traditions and the kids ask every December, "When are we going to look at Christmas lights?" This year we put their tickets on their plates at supper. We wanted to get an early start and figured if we told them to get ready for bed at 5:30 they would be suspicious (we usually leave the tickets on their pillow).

After getting their golden tickets punched, we headed out with popcorn and hot chocolate. Someone told us about a great light show that we'd never seen before and it was awesome! I think we sat and watched for at least 20 minutes. We even got a picture in front of the house!
