Giddy Up, Giddy Up, Giddy Up, Let's Go!

Last weekend, we went on the carriage ride with Jay's parents, so last night, we went back with my family.
The weather had done a complete 180 since last weekend and instead of it being in the 30's, it was in the 60's/70's!
While waiting for the group ahead of us to return, we checked out the light display and ponies in the back.

Lights...
Truett dancing with Nannie Sarah...the lights blinked in sync with the Christmas music that was playing!
Emily trying on Frosty's magic hat...not quite so magical for her! :)

We weren't able to see this stuff last weekend because it was so cold, so it was like a new experience for us. :)

The carriages showed up and it was our turn to ride.

Because there were so many of us, we had to split up into 2 carriages. We decided that Mom and Dan would ride with Truett and John, Sarah, Emily, Jay, Emma and I would all ride together in the 2nd carriage.
It just so happened that the groups before us rode together, so both carriages were there at the same time, so we got to ride with each other, too. The only down side to that was that after about 10 minutes into the ride, Truett started yelling at us from his carriage, saying that he wanted to come and ride in OUR carriage! It was so cute to see him turn around and pop his little head out of the back and say, "I wanna ride in dat one whif YOU!"
If you look closely, you can see Truett's little head poking out of the back of the carriage
I guess, at one point, the carriage drivers no longer thought it was as cute as we did, because they decided to pull over and let Truett get in with us. John decided to hop out and go with Mom and Dan. After about 5 minutes of riding with us, Truett said, "I wanna go in dat one whif John." ARE YOU KIDDING ME? hahahah!
