{Garden Lights: Atlanta Botanical Garden}

We finally made it to the Garden Lights at Atlanta Botanical Garden. The show was included in Forbes 2012 list of 10 Dazzling Holiday Light Display around the world. With an awesome groupon deal, we couldn't pass seeing it this year. What a fun place. The weather was crisp that night, probably one of the coldest we've had. We all bundled up for a perfect night of Christmas lights spectating. Seeing the lights on foot is definitely more enjoyable than watching it from a car. Kids loved that they can run and get close to the lights.

You can't helped but be mesmerized by the enormous amounts of twinkling lights surrounding the area.

The Edible Garden's "Brilliant Bugs display was very much enjoyed by the kids.
Right around the corner was the Glo bar serving cider and hot chocolate. Hot chocolates was the perfect drink of choice for this chilly night. The adults even got a splash of Bailey's on theirs :)
My favorite was the Orchestral Orbs on the main lawn. The topiary light show was choreograpjed to holiday music. You'll see a lot of children (and adults) dancing to it.
This gorgeous poinsettia tree this was huge!
Aside from the beautiful colored lights, William and Samantha loved roasting marshmallows to make s'mores by the fire pit.
We all really enjoyed this family outing. The Garden Lights at the Botanical is definitely a must see!
