Bellevue at Christmas

There were a lot of fun things to do over Christmas break and one of my favorites was going to the Bellevue Botanical Gardens.  Its one of my favorite places without lights but when you add all those thousands of lights it becomes magical. Its so hard to describe how beautiful the lights were. All of the displays are made by volunteers. After we finished at the gardens we went downtown to Snowflake lane. They have drummers line up on the streets with music playing. There is a little parade and then they have fake snow come down. We were right under the snow which is actually bubbles. The kids really loved it. It was super crowded and hard to get good pictures but still a lot of fun to feel the Christmas spirit with everyone.
