McAllen Festival of Lights

 

Tonight we drove over to McAllen for the McAllen Festival of Lights. This year we were able to walk the grounds instead of it being just a drive thru event. However, it was a pretty chilly evening so driving through might have been preferable tonight! LOL!











These trees kept changing colors. It was awesome!

We love these lights!









Tonight they lite the Christmas Tree for the first time and so we had a count down!




We watched as it continued to change colors and designs. It's a fabulous tree!

Looking up into the trees was delightful!

At the home "Quinta Mazatlan" there were some displays on various Christmas Folk Art. 











Then we walked back through the festivities and the lights..








It was a beautiful night. I took a jacket but I really didn't need it.
