Festival of Trees

The Festival of Trees is one of my favorite Utah Christmas traditions! I was so excited to get to go last week! This was my very favorite tree this year. It was a life-size Grinch dressed as Santa with the decorated tree and toys and gifts stuffed in his sack. SO cute and creative!
We took a break and enjoyed delicious warm cinnamon rolls and cinnamon sugar scones. You could smell them almost immediately when you walked in the doors; how could we resist?! Silly Andrew chose popcorn instead.
When Logan sat down and looked at his scone and popcorn he announced, "Now that's what I call a MEAL!"

I don't think I've ever been to a Festival of Trees before but I've seen lots of pictures of them and they look like so much fun! The scones and cinnamon rolls sound way too good too. I'm glad you are all having fun!

What a cute tree. I am not creative enough to do things like that. I always loved going to the festival of trees in St. George. I am sad I was not able to go this year. My family donated a tree this year!
