Enchanted Forest Opens

You know we love Thanksgiving and are not going to skip over it AT ALL!!!!! But, the Enchanted Forest Grand Opening is always the Saturday before Thanksgiving. So, it is the one day that we get ready for Christmas before it's actually December!

The Memphis Riverkings mascot was there!

Our good friends, Amy, Chris, Nate, Lindsey, and Owen came, too!


Susanna wanted OUT, OUT, OUT!!


Santa comes in on the Pediflight helicopter!


So exciting!




The kids loved getting in the helicopter ....


All 6 kids! Lindsey looks so cute, she just lost her second front tooth!

Going into the forest, Susanna LOVED all the moving characters. We couldn't take pictures inside... this was the only one we took before we remembered we weren't supposed to take any.

Santa is at the end of the forest. We have our Santa picture here every year.
Susanna had the token screaming in Santa's lap picture....

Outside the forest are about 50 trees that the community decorates. Organizations and individuals also "sponsor" each tree for a $1000 donation. It's a great fundraiser for the hospital. Susanna wouldn't stay in the picture here!

One more thing, our bridge won first place in the family division! How fun!!!
