Christmas Village 2010

Just before the new year we made our annual trek to Evyn's favorite yule spot, Koziar's Christmas Village.







I have very few pictures to show, because about a third of the way through the displays Andrew decided he wanted only to run free, or to lay on the sidewalk - no stroller, being carried, or walking hand-in-hand for this little monkey!

Christmas Village

On Wednesday December 30th we made our second annual trek to Koziar's Christmas Village. If you're in Pennsylvania and haven't been there, mark it on your calendar for next year!



As we posted last year, we had planned on going on a warmer night this time around. Unfortunately the night we picked a couple weeks ago didn't pan out (Evyn had a belly ache), so we ended up - again- going on a very, very cold night! And, unlike when we visited last year, there was a HUGE crowd. But we were bundled up and ready to have a great time.





Andrew fell asleep before we got in the front gate, and slept until we returned to our car more than an hour later. I'd put a portable heat pack behind his back, which kept him toasty warm.


Evyn, true to form, remembered every last little detail of our trip last year, and insisted she stop by the gift shop to get a Christmas bear for Andrew like she got the year before. They were out of the Christmas bears, so she picked a plush elephant instead.








Be sure to check out our pictures from last year.... we didn't get many good shots this year, as I was busy pushing Andrew's stroller.

last little bit of Christmas

Friday night we bundled up and made the 40-minute drive to Koziar's Christmas Village, just north of Reading, to see their 500,000 Christmas light display before they closed for the season (their 60th anniversary this holiday). Next year we plan to go back on a slightly warmer night - although even in the cold we had a great time!
