What makes this one of the best Christmas festivals in Texas? Well, it seems to have something for everyone. Starting at around 6pm, Santa arrives! All depending on the day, Santa come driving up in a different mode of transportation. Our night, he arrived on a monster truck! But, he's known to come in a sports car, fire truck, and a bunch of other cool vehicles. Along with Santa, there are tons of delicious food vendors. My favorite - funnel cake. Who goes to a festival without funnel cake? Crazies, that's who. There's funnel cake, turkey legs, popcorn, hot dogs, corn dogs, pizza...all the goodies.
The festival has also done a great job putting together activities that kids of all ages can enjoy. They've got a huge carnival with amusement park rides for the older kids and activities for younger kids like a petting zoo, pony rides, carousel, and what they call "The little town of Bethlehem". This is a series of stations where kids learn to make different things as if they lived in the past. Last year, it was bread. I think the year before that was candles. All in all, it's a pretty neat tradition to keep each year, especially now because we have Miles - who did great by the way! We were able to stay for a couple hours before he got hungry and tired.
