12-17-17  Christmas lights with Tim and Faith:

A day to just hang out with the kids---and the animals. 

But when dinnertime rolled around, it was time to go in search of food.  By way of more Christmas lights!

 Since we didn't put up a tree or any decorations this year, it's nice getting to see some.  Kind of hard to get in the Christmas spirit without them.

 Love the lights that look like snow falling.

 We walked through the park.

 Saw Santa fishing.

 Back in the car we headed to Maryville

 to a little pizza/burger/bar.  I had a salad that was quite good.

 And a beer---love trying ones I haven't had before---especially locally brewed ones.

On the way out I saw this---sort of like the painted rock things, but I suspect this is for the homeless or really poor.  Nice gesture and looks like someone knows what they're doing when it comes to knitting.

Another fun day with the kids.
