In some ways after years of living outside our passport country, returning is a bit like seeing it for the first time through a child’s eye.  David and I have always enjoyed Christmas lights and displays.  He was on a trajectory at one time to becoming Clark Griswold in Christmas Vacation.

We wanted to drive through the Longview Christmas in the Park because it’s something we used to do as a family when the boys were little and we like to see the lights.

The boys were oohing and aahing all through the light display.  It was so neat and heart warming to hear their comments and excitement from seeing the lights.  They both asked when we can drive through it again.
