Someone had a fabulous time on the carriage ride through Deerfield to look at Christmas lights.(Deerfield is a neighborhood near us.)
(very over-exposed...which is why it's in black and white)
Walker LOVED the lights. So did Lainey, but she was far away from me on the carriage. According to Walker, "ree-tee-teets" are "yellow" lights and "Christmas lights" are "color" lights. The word "ree-tee-teets" has been in the Harris family since Bud was a little boy. That's what he said when he saw Christmas lights. So, truly, "ree-tee-teets" is what the Harris family has said - for years and years - whenever one of us spies Christmas lights. Walker's decided to be the one who differentiates between ree-tee-teets and Christmas lights...the first one in a couple of generations to do so. :) Silly boy. You can't just change tradition like that! :)
