The small town that we live in is a little bit BORING...compared to Turlock at the Holidays. You see all the years we lived in Turlock, we went to the Tree lighting festivities on Friday after Thanksgiving and then we did the Christmas Parade Festivities the first weekend in December. We also had different other events at the Church, (i.e. the Choir Performance, the Childrens Musical, the Women's Christmas Dessert) and then there were other events (i.e. EMC Fesival of Trees the Garratt worked every year for the past 7-8 years). These are all things I miss. These were events that helped you get into the Christmas Mood...it helped you find that burried Christmas Spirit that you hide away all year until December and love to let out. We miss all of this. What we found here in Pullman is some fun decor and a Christmas Tree Lighting that was ok!! It was fun but not what we are use to. That's basically it. This little ceremony that lasts 30 minutes and then a bon fire at one of the resturants. Granted there were very beautiful decorations in the windows of all the shops, but still sort of a let down. The only other event that I am looking forward to is our church does a drive-thru nativity that is running next weeked and looks like a LOT of FUN!!! I will post about that next weekend. So here are some pictrures!!




ME & GARRATT!!!
