Part of the excitement of Christmas is all the activities during the season. Even with little Owen this year, we wanted to make sure Ainsley got plenty of Christmas spirit leading up to the big day. Here are just a few of the fun things we did throughout December.
Tower City
We spent an afternoon at Tower City during Cleveland's WinterFest, where we saw two performances by local ballet troupes and viewed the store windows of the Higbee building, which were decorated to represent different scenes from The Nutcracker. A festive way to kick off the Christmas season!

Kraynak's
It wouldn't be Christmas without a trip to Kraynak's Garden Center in Sharon, PA to see Santa Claus Land. The display this year did not disappoint! We piled in the car with Great Grandma Shellhammer for the day's adventures. It's a good thing Daddy has narrow hips, because he was able to squeeze between the two car seats in the back so we only needed to take one car.

I loved this cozy living room scene. |

Legacy Village
One evening, we walked around Legacy Village to enjoy the beautiful lights and the Christmas music. Even without snow, the lights and tree created a splendid Christmas scene.
