Lengle Family tradition in Stanley Park

We have a Lengle family tradition where we go to the "Bright Nights in Stanley Park".

We go and look at the light displays, visit the petting zoo and then ride the Christmas train. This year, because of the snow, we weren't sure if we were going to make it out there. Unfortunately, Grandpa and Grandma Mitchler couldn't come, but the rest of us drove out there, hoping for the best.

We started the night at the Lengle's house having pizza for dinner. Here are some pictures at the house...

Megan and Bryan geared up to go outside and play in the snow!

We felt sorry for the broken soldier who kept getting hit by the others!

All the kids drinking at the same time! *laughs*
Love the touque, Bryan!

We had a great time! I encourage everyone to go visit "Bright Nights" as a lot of the money goes towards the BC Firefighters Burn Fund. It's a great way to kick off your Christmas season! :)

Videos of Lily

Here are just a couple of recent videos I took of Lily. She's growing really fast and doing "weirdo" things. *laughs*

I was updating some pictures on my computer the other day and all I could hear was Lily giggling. So, I turned on the camera and got a little bit of what I had been listening to for about 10 mins! She's funny that way. She laughs randomly. :)

Here she is after finding some of the DVD's we borrowed from my Dad. For some reason she loved the Harry Potter one. *laughs* Maybe we need to start reading her the books, eh, Auntie Gail?!

Here's Lily playing with my keys. She has this fascination with shaking things. :)
