Christmas Tree Lighting 2009

We attended the Collierville Christmas Tree Lighting.  The tree is HUGE....but it's cool.  No real activity, other than music by a combined school choir and Santa.  But it's in Town Square, and it's just another small town feel thing.  This is Kraig and Chris in front of the tree, before it was lit.











After being lit....




Each year, there is free hot chocolate, Santa visits in the Gazebo (Kraig at first said he wanted to, but decided it was too cold to stand in line), and there are 3d glasses handed out......the lights change when you look at them with the glasses.  The first year they were snowflakes, last year they were something else, and this year, they were various Christmas shapes.  I attempted to take a picture with the glasses ove the lens, but it didn't come out very well.  You can kinda see the shapes....candy canes, gingerbread men, stockings.








Kraig in his glasses....

Collierville Town Square

Collierville Town Square is full of history....lots of shops and restaurants, a fire station, a gazebo. There is often one activity or another going on.....this summer a farmer's market was started just off of Town Square, and my parents went to it a couple of times. These are some pics of Kraig at Town Square...one of his favorite things, (after fire trucks) is trains. Not at all influenced by his Papa......












This is one my favorites......he is such a little man sometimes....




And there is also a cannon to resemble civil war times set up as well.....there is a civil war trail that goes through Collierville...






And then there is Kraig being Kraig....doing what Kraig does.....
