We took my parents to Celebration in the Oaks. It was a very nice and warm night. Last time Emile and I went we had hot chocolate, it was way too warm for that this year. A cold beer suited the weather much better. This year was the first year after Katrina that you could ride the little train all around the park again. They had lots of rides and the little minituare trains are always fun to watch.
You just can't go to Celebration in the Oaks without listening to the "Cajun night before Christmas" story
A different light turns on as the story goes on.

Here's Santa leaving:Listen to the story here:




Bye Mr. Bingle, see you next year!!!
