Hay Ride!

We missed out on this neighborhood tradition last year, due to our 3 day-old baby...but this year we didn't! Our little city (our city is in the middle of a suburb and made up of only a few hundred homes in about 3 neighborhoods) offers horse-drawn carriage rides and hay rides on the 23rd and 24th.

Here are the beautiful horses:

Hope you all are having a joyous and festive Christmas Eve! Christ is almost born!!!
