Sunday evening was a very special event for Mama, Daddy, Chase and Nanaw. Jackson's grandma scheduled a carriage ride to see the lights at the Shrine's Way of Lights for 10 people, and she included Nanaw. They got there early and bought kettle corn to eat -- the other food wasn't available. They saw the camels giving camel rides but didn’t do it. They went into the petting zoo, and Jackson and Chase fed the carrot pieces to the goats and camels -- it was very cute. Nanaw was very cold and sorry that she forgot to bring s blanket. But Chase said he would share his blanket with Nanaw. When they got to their carriage, they learned that their horse's name was Jimmy. (The other two were Ronnie and Grace.) Jackson brought two apples for the horses. Jimmy ate one whole one and then half of the other one. The other half went to Ronnie. Nanaw had a bit of difficulty climbing into the carriage but eventually got herself seated. Jackson's mom brought extra blankets so Nanaw got one, plus some super-duper hand warmers that Nanaw shared with Chase. The lights were wonderful and so was the carriage ride. At one point, the driver had Jimmy gallop up a hill -- very exciting. On the way out of the Shrine, they got to see all the lights again. They gave a donation to the Shrine, and Chase got a polar bear for the donation. He named the bear Jimmy Jr., of course. Jackson named his bear Jimmy also.
