I love living in a city where they still have a Christmas Celebration. The city does a Christmas parade and sleigh rides and so many other activities over an entire weekend. The was fun with how warm it was.
This is the downtown of Apex where we live. It reminds me of Park City but all the buildings says Tobacco on them.
They had two sleigh's you could ride on with the kids. It was fun watching the horses walk up and down the street the entire night.
Because we usually don't get much snow here they brought some in for the kids to play with. If you have seen the weather at all in the East you know we have had TONS of snow for North Carolina since January. This snow was melted and very slushy.
This was from the Parade the next night. It is fun watching all the old cars and bands roll by.
We have lots of different churches here and you get to see a lot of Christian floats.
Lastly we had to have Santa at the end of the night.
The next weekend I purchased Santa Train tickets. This is a real train, and you get to pick whether you want to ride on a diesel or a steam engine. They run year round mostly. This was a very cold, wet day!
They had these old trains you could walk in an they were either a store or a museum about this rail road company.
Someone took a nice picture of us.
This was kind of a sad Santa compared to the one we saw in November for our pictures.
When Santa came by he gave Q and piece of coal and G2 and I candy canes.
We got to see the engine up close when it drove by to switch where it was being carried.
He was really cold and trying to warm up. I should have brought a blanket for us.
