25 Days of Christmas, Day 22

Today after dinner, we drove over to Christmas Card Lane, in Rancho Penasquitos. It's a four or five block area where all the houses put out wooden cut outs, either looking like Christmas cards or depicting their favorite characters, movie, etc. It was a very cold night and the streets were packed so we opted to just stay in our car and drive through. The kids loved seeing some of their favorite characters like Belle, Nemo and Dory, Winnie the Pooh and friends, etc.

Some of the houses had fire pits in the drive way and were having parties. Some were selling hot cocoa, treats, etc. One even had a four person band! Some had their whole yard set up with trains, a fire place, so crazy! And some were very ingenious like depicting The Christmas Story movie with a pretend kid standing next to a flag pole with his tongue stuck to the pole, one of my favorite scenes in the movie. They even had the leg lamp! Such a fun area, we plan to come back next year and walk the streets!
