Every year I think that it would be fun to take the boys to the Festival of Trees. We finally did it this year. There are A LOT of trees and we started out strong and excited to see them all. This one could be Matt's dream tree.
This is more my taste.
An Eric Carle tree is fun. The ornaments were all the food the caterpillar from The Very Hungry Caterpillar ate--very cute.
This scuba diving/shark tree was really cool. I just didn't get a good picture of it.
A tree for Grandpa.
But after walking past a few rows of trees with crowds of people, the kids started to wear out. Then the thirst set in. And it wasn't long after that they were starving. They couldn't properly enjoy this super cute robot, or
appreciate the Utah Jazz tree.
Poor Zack couldn't even walk.
So we ate a few snacks, got drinks and coaxed the kids to look at a few more. We didn't want to miss this rockin' tree.
Or the various versions of the Grinch
We spent about an hour and a half looking before Matt & I called it quits. We didn't even see all the trees or make it to the wreaths. Our kids are lightweights! Even with all the complaining, it really was fun to see all the creative and beautiful ways to decorate a tree.
