Festival of Trees

We had a great time (as always) at the Festival of Trees. It is such an amazing fundraiser. It makes me happy to see all the hard work, the gorgeous donations, the thousands of volunteers, and the talent.....and 100% of it goes to Primary Children's. Even though there are sad stories that drive a lot of what goes on there it is a powerful feeling to see all those involved and affected take their challenges and struggles and use them as motivators. I hope to be able to donate a tree next year and participate even further in this event.
Here are some of our favorites this year: (the "Up" tree and gingerbread house and the "Tangled" gingerbread house were definitely the most fantastic)









Sam was our train spotter. He would scan each tree for one and then run there. James was content to enjoy the whole experience. Chloe was walking all over the place enjoying being free. She was dazzled by all the "pretty" trees and had a bard time not experiencing all the shiny things they had to offer! :)
