Mill Pond and Chucky Cheese

I took all these with my iphone, so they aren't great quality, but some turned out ok. One of the very few family pictures! haha. We went to the mill pond area in downtown Brighton. They were having several events for kids and then Santa and Mrs. Claus were coming to turn on all the downtown Christmas lights. It was freezing cold outside, but we had to go on the train ride or else Hunter would have been very disappointed!
Waiting to get on the train that took us for a ride down Main Street in Brighton.
Jack and I snuggling on the train to keep warm :)

They had a table set up so you could write letters to Santa. Hunter said, "I don't want anything. I already have four toys." I told him that was just fabulous if he didn't want Santa to bring him anything and then told him he had hundreds of toys, which is way more than four! He still had fun checking out the mailbox.

We went to the Yum Yum Tree for dinner. We used to come here a lot when I was growing up. They have a train track and train that goes around the top of the restaurant (see top of picture above). Hunter and Jack both enjoyed watching it go around and I did too when I was a kid!
Hunter was up on daddy's shoulders waiting for Santa to arrive to turn on the lights.
They even had a reindeer come with Santa and Mrs. Claus.


We went to Chucky Cheese recently. It's a lot more fun now that Hunter is older and can play a lot of the games. Jack loves just looking around at everything and they have a few things he can do. We have to come up with things like this to do now that it's getting cold! Hunter got his picture taken with Chucky :)

Hunter was driving and Jack was his passenger.

Riding the carousal...Nick had to follow it around and hold Jack on

Nick and Hunter riding a roller coaster ride together. We won lots of tickets and had some good family fun! Who would have thought five years ago this is how we'd be spending our time together?!?!
