Since Ratface lives across the street from Knott's Berry Farm, she was given two free tickets to Knott's Merry Farm (Knott's at Christmas), not to be confused with Knott's Scary Farm (Knott's at Halloween). We were all too happy to take advantage of those tickets and had a great time. I think we only went on one ride, the rest of the time was enjoying the shows and the atmosphere. Dickens characters walking around singing carols, theatrical production of A Christmas Carol and The Gift of the Magi, Snoopy on Ice (which was surprisingly good), a huge Christmas tree lighting, and Linus quoting the true meaning of Christmas re-enacting the scene from "A Charlie Brown Christmas". They also let in about 100 artisans selling home made crafts for the Christmas season. If I lived in the Orange County area, I would make it annual tradition to get the Christmas spirit flowing.


For the first time ever, we bought a Christmas tree from a parking lot. Well, Grandma paid for it. We just helped her pick it out and get it home. Christmas day was wonderful, spent at Grandma's with lots of family over-Aunt Laurie, Chase, Chase, Caleb, Emma, & Sarah, Nathan and Christina, and Uncle Brett & Aunt Cathi.
