Right after Thanksgiving, in New Orleans' City Park, an event called Celebration in the Oaks begins. It runs through the entire holiday season. There is a train ride, merry-go-round, light displays throughout the park, Santa, and a MILLION people. We bundled up and took that baby on his first train ride. He was fussy at first, but as soon as it rolled out of the station, he sat right up and took in the show. I swear it was the best night of his life. He loved it. He then slept in my arms for the remainder of the evening.. until we gave him to Santa for a sweet sleeping photo. Luckily we grabbed a sleeping and an awake shot.
Seriously, if you're in New Orleans for the holidays.. this is a must-see. Really gets you in the spirit. |
