Quite Company bus trip to the Austin Trail of Lights and Zilker tree concert

christmas caroling with quiet company

we took a bus ride with Quiet Company.  we sang Christmas carols.  the daughter received handmade jingle bells, she loved the music and sing along.

mental preparation for entering the trail of lights.  guitar and pick, ready, set, GO!

and it was magical.  if you've ever wanted to sing or play guitar while traveling through a tunnel of light, I highly recommend the Austin Trail of Lights.

numb fingers easily loose picks in guitars.  the pick was recovered and we marched and sang our way to the Zilker tree.

if you get to the tree, it's required that you stand under it, look up and spin.  and spin some more till you make yourself dizzy.  that explains all the giggling in the background of the videos.  it's from dizzy kids that have spun themselves silly.

I'd warned #1 son that it was going to get much colder and that he might need warmer clothes...

sad boy with cold legs

but he survived.  thank you to Quiet Company for providing us with good cheer this holiday season.
