Tree Lighting

To kick off the holiday season (after black friday shopping on Thanksgiving and decorating the house Friday afternoon) we headed into Portland for the tree lighting. I can’t even count the times I thought we should go and never did. Well before young Alec was a gleam in our eyes. I finally made it! Of course this was made helpful by decent weather, meeting up with the Todd family, and the promise of Rick Charette.  :) It was our group and 10,000 other people! I never imagined there would be this many people turning up for the Portland tree lighting.

 

 

 

Terrorizing the streets of Portland.

After a walk down to Gritty’s for drinks and dinner…the camera was relinquished to the children to help keep them occupied.

And the camera was promptly confiscated when I heard Alec whispering to Mya to take pictures of the wall. 

And that’s when we noticed the naked ladies on the wall. 

Oh Alec! You silly, silly boy.
