Clifton Mill

Last Monday evening we headed to Clifton Mill to see their lights and Christmas displays. It is one of the oldest mills still in existence today and they decorate it and everything around it with over 3 million lights! The weather was mild, so we enjoyed it even more. The lights come on at 6pm every night and they do a light show to music (very Trans siberian Orchestra). I love Christmas lights, so I thought it was really good!

Here is Ross standing in the covered bridge before the lights come on.


And Boom!




This is all lighting up to the music...




After the show, we walked around a bit...


A view of the mill and then a tiny replica village in the front...


The covered bridge


the bridge is a lot farther up than you think!


And a little Z for fun!


Max watching the train in the miniature town set-up! They had the miniature Ohio State marching band spelling out OHIO! He thought that was neat.



Ross giving me his best deer impression. I used the flash on my camera so I could really get them and well, its a little bright and flash-y!


Miniature town...



Here is the replica of the mill building...


And the real thing...









The kids can look in on Santa working in his workshop and then he goes up and puts presents in the sleigh!


That's a lot of lights...


They also had an entire room filled with Santa figurines from all over the world.





Such a fun night soaking up a little Christmas spirit.
