Usually they have an ice sculpture on every corner. They did it a little differently this time. They lined the main road with two different themes. One side of the road was "The Christmas Story" theme and the opposite side was a "Charlie Brown" theme. We started on "The Christmas Story" side. :-)
Who could forget the tongue getting stuck on the pole?
Each year some guys get together and put up these pictures depicting the life of Jesus - starting with his birth and ending with his resurrection. I love that we are allowed to display these in a public park in the center of town. They were just restored and we wanted to get a close-up look at the new and improved signs.
Here we have an ice sculpture of Charlie Brown. They were all sooooo well done!
Because it was so cold, we stopped inside several stores to get warmed up. This is one of my favorite stores in the area. It's closed down in November for 2 weeks while they get it all decorated for Christmas. It looks just beautiful when they're done! You can kind of see from this picture how beautiful it is. We stopped in and got our teacher presents here. We also went to a few other stores and had lunch uptown too. We braved the cold and enjoyed our time at the Odyssey this year. Just hoping that next year isn't so stinkin' cold!
