Festival of Trees

This year we went to the Festival of Trees with Grandpa Jay and Grandma Anderson. We were expecting the kids to love it, but it was an overstimulating experience, for all of us. We had a good time though.


There were tons of big trees, little trees, wreaths, centerpieces, and all other kids of art. On top of all of that, there are performers, crafts, lots of food, activities, and Santa. There were a lot of neat trees. One was made all of glass and it was connected to a series of evergreen trees and glass presents and did a music and light show. Wow! The guard lady nearby the tree said that tree sold for $27,000.00. Mommy heard of a Twilight themed tree donated by the Salt Lake Twilighters Anonymous. It had Twilight themed ornaments and had presents under the tree that could have be given to characters in the book.

Afterwards, we went to Daddy's favorite, Crown Burger! Lizzy marched right up to the counter and gave her standard McDonald's order "chicken nuggets, fries, juice box, and a toy". Ervin inhaled a burger and fries.

We had a great time and hope to go again! Here are some pictures I took with my phone.

It looks like you had a lot of fun! I always wanted to go to the festival of trees, but never had the chance to go.
