The Day After Thanksgiving

Tradition always takes us to Newport the day after Thanksgiving. The Santa at Fashion Island is gorgeous. He’s made every visit wonderful. Then we always stop at Roger’s Garden to see their Santa and decorations. It’s always a beautiful day. This year Roger’s Garden had a Christmas tree lot. The kids loved playing in the trees. The trees smelled heavenly.

The set-up is so beautiful. He’s actually in a little house. Outside there is a little village, pine trees, and poinsettias.

I love photography, therefore, I love to compare photos. The first photo is Katie at 20 months

in front of Santa’s house at Fashion Island. The second photo is Katie at 6 years old in front of

Santa’s house at Fashion Island. Wow!

Thanks for looking,
