Christmas Tree Lighting on Rittenhouse

The Christmas tree lighting was last night at Rittenhouse Square. I took a few minutes out of a very busy schedule to walk over and take a few pictures. I'm glad I did. It's the first connection to the holiday season I've had. Yum.


They counted down 3-2-1 and the lights went on. Oohs and ahhs.



Santa, Santa, Santa. The kids were really cheering when Santa arrived.



This Father Christmas was towering over the crowd at 10-feet tall. He would envelope children in his cloak by asking, "Do you want to enter the Winter Wonderland?" He was a big hit.
