As much as we are watching our children to see what they do with thier lives, they are watching us to see what we do with ours.

Christmastown

 Christmas Town at Busch Gardens is the perfect place to enjoy the holidays.  We enjoyed rides, a neat penguin exhibit, caroling, snow falling and lots of sparkling Christmas lights.  The highlight of my evening was the fireside dinner with Santa, Mrs.Claus and the elves.  Santa even read my favorite holiday book "The Night Before Christmas" .  Isabella was eager to chat with the Elves and Santa. Sophia, on the other hand, needed to warm up to Santa.  After dinner and desert she was ready to approach the jolly old man but only if "Momma comes too".  After dinner we enjoyed the sights around the park.  Our last ride of the evening was the train which is Sophia's favorite ride.  As much as Sophia loves the train, she could not keep up the struggle to stay awake.  She snuggled onto PopPop for a little beauty rest.  Christmas Town was a memorable holiday experience that was a treat for all!
