A craft faire, a light show, and my first NFL game

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list friends! I did some exciting stuff in December that I did not get around to blogging about, so I’m going to write about it now, so let’s get to it

December 7th, 2024

On this day, I went to one of my favorite local events that happens every year. That event is the holiday craft faire. There is a vendor that has the cutest soaps. I love the soap that has toys inside. I got a few soaps that had toys in them, but close to that booth, I saw another one that I knew I had to check out! This booth was full of pens, key chains, straw toppers, and more! I got some pens ,a key chain, and some straw covers. I alao got coffee while I was at the event.  I very much enjoyed the 2024 craft faire, and im looking forward to going again this year.

On this day I went to Fantasy of lights. This is a local event that started when i was young. I have loved going to this fun drive-through light show ever since it started. I don’t go every year and  unfortunately the prices have increased a lot over the years. However, I really wanted to go, so I paid the high price because I knew I would be upset if I had to miss this event due to money. Honestly, I’m glad I decided to pay the high price because I had a great time going to this event with my parents. I got to see my favorite light displays from when I was a kid, but I also got to see some new displays. I loved the beautiful light up flowers that they had. I’m so blessed that I got to enjoy this year’s event! I loved seeing the bear climb the candy cane again!

On the day I went to my first NFL game. I was given tickets and I was so thankful! I took a friend who also had never been to an NFl game before. Due to rain there was a bad accident that caused lots of traffic that made us very late. We got there at halftime. However, we still managed to have a great time! We got some great pictures and had some food.  It was so cool seeing a game in person since I have watched many games on TV before. I hope I get to go to another game sometime.

Thanks for reading about the fun events I went to in December 2024!

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! This is just a quick post to show you some pictures of my family’s Christmas tree is year! We have been using an artificial tree for a while now, and honestly, I like it better than using a real tree. We have so many ornaments, and there are still some that I have not put on the tree yet. However, I still wanted to share some photos of this year’s tree!

spending time with my friend, looking at Christmas lights, and shopping at the Goodwill blogmas day 10

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! I have gotten a little bit behind on my blog posts because I was busy having a great time with my amazing friend this weekend! We met on Saturday evening at Starbucks. Then we went to look at Christmas lights. We went to this one neighborhood where almost every house was decorated. There were also lighted archers that you could walk under. There were so many things to look at and take pictures of. I got cold, but other than that, it was perfect. I spent the night at my friends house. I think it is important to remember that sleepovers are still fun even in your 30s! The next day we went to Goodwill to drop some things off but we also went inside the store. My main goal was to look for books. This location had a good selection of books. I got some American girl books and a Mary-Kate and Ashley book. Some other items that I got were a Build a Bear brand bunny plush, 4th of July themed buttons, a Ty Beanie Baby ornament , and Christmas art supplies. Another highlight of the weekend was that my friend and I decorated gingerbread cookies and a house. I hope all of you are having an amazing Christmastime!

Blogmas day 13 fantasy of lights 2022

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list, friends! Last night, I went to one of my favorite local Christmastime events. I’ve gone to fantasy of lights many times. I have even attended their walk through event before. However, due to crowd sizes, I’ve decided that I like the drive-through better. Last night, after stopping at Panera Bread, my parents and I went to the fantasy of lights drive through. I’m glad I was able to get a ticket because they got bought quickly. At the event, I was reunited with my favorite light displays. Some of my favorites are the ice-skating bears, the dinosaurs, and the penguins. There was also something new this year. They had these beautiful flowers. I loved the new addition to the event. Also, they gave out these cool glasses that caused the lights to take fun shapes when you looked through them.I had a really great time, and I hope to go back next year!

I Enjoyed seeing my favorite displays from the regular event. I also liked the new displays that this location had the offer. I really liked this drive through event.

Fantasy of lights 2018

Posted on by crazydreamsgirl

Hello, my bucket list friends ! This weekend I got to enjoy one of my favorite Christmas time things ,Christmas lights ! There is this really cool event in my area called Fantasy of lights I’ve mentioned this before in a blog post from last year.( you can read it here ). Anyways I thought I’d go into more detail about this fun event . Let’s get to it !

 

Fantasy of lights 2018

Fantasy of lights is this wonderful event where a local park goes all out with the Christmas lights . There are many colorful light displays set up you can see everything from penguins to dinosaurs . The event started 20 years ago but I remember when it was  new! It used to be just a drive through attraction but later on walk through nights were offered .  After doing both more then once I can honestly say that the walk through nights are my favorite . This year I did the walk through with my parents . I saw my favorite light displays including the ice skating bears, the bear climbing the huge candy cane and the big Fantasy of lights arch. There was a light display of cat that I think was new . It’s fun to see all the displays that have been added over the years .  It was cold and crowded that night but it was still enjoyable . One of the things that have changed since this event started is that you now have to get tickets before you go because it has become so popular . Even with the all cold and all the people it was worth going to this year. I hope everyone is enjoying the last month of 2018 .
