Mike and Elsie with cousin Aubrey (Laura and Craig's little girl)
We had dinner over at Kim and Chris' house and we put the girls to bed there so we could hang out a little longer. Sophie slept on Alex's bunk bed, and Alex read to Sophie before tucking her into bed! It was really cute (although we did end up separating them...they were having too much fun to sleep!)
We did took our traditional trip to Rock City to walk through their huge Christmas lights display
Sophie held Aubrey's hand during a lot of the walk
Children's museum in Chattanooga
After eating dinner at Laura and Craig's house, we drove to a house nearby that decorates like crazy for Christmas. They have so many decorations that people park their cars and get out to walk around their yard. They even empty out their garage and fill it with Christmas stuff and let people go inside to look around! It was the neatest thing! This is a picture of Sophie inside their garage.
Santa was even there...Sophie told him she wanted princess stuff for Christmas. Elsie was scared and didn't want a picture with Santa.
