Soft, white snow falling gently from the sky, drifting gracefully through the air, and landing in glistening billows on the ground . . . a beautiful sight. A sight that kindles that magical feeling of the holiday season and inspires us to partake in wonderful seasonal activities such as singing Christmas carols, sculpting snow forts, and stringing strands of bright holiday lights.
Breathtaking lights, reflecting off of the sparkling white snow and strung into captivating displays will delight visitors as they drive through the Sertoma Winter Wonderland. This spectacular, new holiday tradition includes over 50 colorfully lit, animated displays that are sure to add a sparkle of excitement to the eyes of families.

On Saturday night, amongst the blizzard, we loaded in the car (even Scout ) and headed for the Sertoma Winter Wonderland. Bryan and I had both been anticipating this night for weeks, as we couldn't wait to bring Carter. We went last year but he was just too little to really enjoy it. Once you arrive at the entrance, you turn off your headlights and slowly travel through a lighted Wonderland. The displays were amazing! Bryan's employer, Ascensus, had what I believe to be the best display. It was a 3 dimensional looking church, but once you got close, you could see that is was just 2 dimensional. Such thought went into every display, and Carter was so amazed and excited. It was all we had hoped for. We topped the night off with some custard from Culver's. We were all in bed by 9pm and we couldn't have asked for a better family night out.
Although the below pics of the lights don't do the experience justice, Carter's facial expressions should sum it up for you. And YES, he got to sit on my lap in the front seat.
