Christmas Village

For the first year, the Hope Town ball field has been transformed into a winter wonderland. What an awesome job Monica and her elves did, and what a lot of work!

There was a miniature golf gingerbread house...

Santa will be sure to arrive in none other than an Abaco Dinghy being towed by dolphins and flamingos.

This is where Santa will sit with all the kids at the North Pole...

While this big kid mails his letter...

A last minute shopping area complete with driftwood Christmas Tree...

 

Funnel cake, ice cream sundaes and sodas (love the names of the toppings!)...

And ICE SKATING at "Rockafisher Centre"! Synthetic ice sections and skates were shipped in for this attraction. The kids had a blast and most had never ice skated before.

  

All the proceeds from this three day event are being donated to the new community center.

The Christmas spirit did not stop at the village though. Other houses are decorated in town with this yard being our favorite and this blow-up really made us laugh:

The whole place looked like it was snowing with tiny projection lights, and it's hard to see but the big tree in the background is loaded with ornaments.

It really is amazing to think of where we are and where all the decorations and supplies had to come from. Add on to that all the work from volunteers to make these events happen. As the saying goes, "it takes a village!"
