I have been waiting a year to write this post! I am really excited to share today’s idea with you. Today, I’m sharing a Christmas Activity that has become a new Christmas tradition in our house. It is a fantastic Christmas activity for kids as well as for the whole family. We had so much fun!
This is one of the few stops where we had to get out of the car. My girls were a little embarrassed to be in their pajamas for this one. I’m sure I am totally helping by posting it on my blog. 😉 |
What could be more fun than a late night to look at Christmas lights with hot chocolate and popcorn while in your cozy pajamas listening to Christmas music!
I caught Pumpkin in mid-jump! Do you think she is excited?! |
My girls are always asking to go look at lights, but it always seems like we are on our way home from somewhere, have a time frame, or it is near their bedtime, so the answer is usually, “No.” Yep, I feel like a bad mom writing that, but it is the truth and I’m gonna guess I’m not alone.
Both girls were so excited! |
Well, there you have it. I hope you try out this Christmas activity. If you do, I doubt you will be disappointed We had so much fun and I hope you do too! Can’t wait for the Christmas Express to come this year!
What is your favorite Christmas Activity?
that looks like fun. we don’t celebrate christmas and we still like looking at the light displays in the area! you used to be a flight attendant??
Maybe you could call yours the Holiday express or the Hanukkah express. It is so much fun to go look at lights. There is a house near us that is all blue and white lights, it is so pretty! I often wonder if they just like blue and white or if they are Jewish. Maybe there are some like that you could sprinkle in .
Yes, I was a flight attendant for a short time.
Take care,
KC
Please book Grandpa & Grandma for the Polar Express on Dec 20. Add it to our hotel billing. THX!
Wish I could Dad! We don’t have a car big enough for all of us and we plan to head out on the Christmas Express before you get here.

So fun! And thanks for your sweet comment on my peppermint wreath! I also checked out your first half marathon post! Way to go! That is awesome!
Oh, Thank you. It is so much fun! Thank for stopping by and your kind comments.
KC
Fun! Love this post! I’ll see if I can implement this… my kids would love it!
Thanks Kristine! I hope you are able to try it….you guys will have so much fun. Would it be OK if I sent something to ‘A’ that I have extra of, but I don’t have anything for ‘J.’ It is something for her AG dolls. I have nothing boy that I could add and I don’t want him to feel left out. Let me know what you think.

That is so unbelievably CUTE! I want to do it with my kids. I bet they would just DIE with excitement 🙂 Thank you so much for the good idea!
You are so welcome! I am sure your kids will love it! My kids keep asking, when they will get tickets this year. It was fun to see them run up the stairs this weekend each time we told them it was time to get ready for bed. Of course they were disappointed we haven’t gone yet, but it will happen soon!
Have fun!
KC
Oh my goodness! This is the cutest idea ever! I cant wait to take my kiddos to see the lights! 🙂
Thanks, Kelley! I’m sure your kids will have lots of fun going to see the lights! Hopefully you will, too! 😉
Take care,
KC
What a cute idea to jazz up Christmas light seeing. Thanks for sharing!
You are welcome! Have fun.

I totally want to do this when my girls get older. Great memories in the making.
Great memories in the making for sure! I’m sure you will have so much fun when your girls are old enough. Enjoy!
KC
A great idea. I might try it for one of our Advent Calendar ideas. My kids are a bit older. I might have to try a different approach. It is all very exciting though!!
Kelly
Glad you like the idea. Have fun in whatever form you try the idea.
KC
Fantastic idea! Our boys love to look at Christmas lights and we took them on the “Polar Express” train in Bryson City last Christmas. They’ll absolutely love this combination.
I so wish we had a ‘Polar Express’ train here. They are so neat! We had one in a different state we lived in. I hope if you try this idea, it is lots of fun for the whole family.
Take Care,
KC
Oh your girls look so sweet. What a fun surprise.
And wow, those are some serious light displays!

Thank you, they are sweet (most of the time)! They sure were great light displays.
