We drove up to McAdenville, NC on Sunday with the Glovers to see all of the lights in McAdenville. I had been hearing that the light display is awesome in this town for many years and this year I got to see them. We waited in line for about 2 hrs before we got to see them but it was worth it...they were awesome...
The pictures don't do the lights justice...it was beautiful...
This was a huge wreath....
Cool, red, white & blue tree....
Loved this house...it was really cute...
Trees were all lit up on the water...
We stopped for a photo op with the snowman....Eric, Tyler & Scott

We went to Greenville to see the Roper Mountain Christmas Lights with the Glovers...it was fun!
Tyler invited Mayci & Abby to go with us....
We went to see the balloon guy and he made all the kids a cool balloon...
Tyler got an elf hat....isn't he cute??
Abby & Mayci got a penguin, Cassie got a reindeer and Tyler got an elf hat.
The Glovers...
I can definately say that I have found someone that loves to go see Christmas lights as much as I do...or even more than I do...Jennifer & Eric LOVE it.....Besides going to McAdenville and Roper Mountain to see lights with the Glovers we also went to Fountain Inn, Simpsonville, & Pelzer one night looking at lights too. We had a lot of fun. We wanted to put Scott out of the car a few times cause he thinks if you've seen one Christmas light display, you've seen them all BUT that is not true :)
Kalin Monday came over and spent the night with Cassie. She is a fun girl with lots of energy...
Cassie & Kalin decorated a Gingerbread House...they wouldn't let me help....they wanted to do it all by themselves without Mom...
They both took a side of the house and decorated it the way they wanted....This is Kalin's side...
Cassie did the front of the house...
Cassie's side of the house....
Ooops...I guess I didn't turn this one before I uploaded it...anyways...Kalin did the back of the house...
The next morning they got up and wanted to "eat" the house...so they did....well, some of it anyways.. :)
Abby & Mayci came down and opened their present. We got them Mexican Train, which they have enjoyed playing....
Brian & Elaine came for dinner and we also exchanged gifts with them...
Lynn and her new boyfriend, Paul came too...
And of course, Grandpa came... We had a nice ham dinner with all the fixings and dessert. They got me a real nice glass cake plate....now I can display all my cakes on it... :)
Cassie has been singing all I want for Christmas is a hippopotamus, so Scott got her one...
She couldn't wait to get her Northface Jacket....She loves it...
Zack was waiting for his Borderlands game for the XBox...Needless to say, we didn't see him much the rest of the day :) He also got a few more games, some clothes, money, devotion book..
Cassie with all her loot...She mainly wanted clothes...She got a couple of Hollister Hoodies, some Hollister shirts, pair of sneakers, webkinz, pants and a few games for computer....
I was excited, my hubby bought me a new laptop...it is sooo much faster then my old one...I love it...
I didn't think I was that good this year to get two awesome gifts this year...but santa also brought me a Kitchenaid Mixer....Yeah!! Now I don't have to make all that frosting with my hand mixer....
