James Island Festival of Lights

Last night Gary and I took Mckenna and Ayden Jane to the "James Island Festival of Lights." It is a big county park that has tons of lights up both to drive around and see and to walk all through the walking path and see. It is a bit of a drive from here, but it was so worth it. The girls had a great time. Mckenna climbed the climbing wall like a champ. Ayden Jane sobbed bitterly that she was not big enough.... She so wanted to climb just like Mckenna and I have no doubt she would have made it to the top. Getting her down would have been the challenge!

(Mckenna is in yellow)


She did get to ride the carousel and was very excited that she rode a lion. She kept telling us over and over how she did a good job riding a lion! We walked all through the path and Ayden Jane ran with Mckenna from lights to lights. The funniest was a jumping frog. It was lit at one end as the frog 'sat' for a few seconds. Then the lights moved and made it look like the frog was jumping onto a lilly pad about 5-10 yards away. Mckenna kept telling Ayden Jane to catch the frog and she ran from one end to the other. Everytime she would get to the frog just as it was gone. A little cruel maybe but hilarious!


Here are a few poor pictures of the girls just a couple of the hundreds of lighted figures. (I really do need to get a real camera)
