Christmas Yule Log and Lights

We had our 23rd annnual Christmas gathering of our craft group on Saturday.  This year was my year to host.  I tried a new dessert- a Buche de Noel a yule log.  A jelly roll filled with chocolate flavored whip cream and cut to look like a log!  Here is my first attempt at this dessert.

Tonight Michael and I took a drive to see some of the Christmas lights...

This tree had racing lights that looked like shooting stars.  It is in the front of the Bachmans store on Lyndale.

Then we drove south to see "the tree" on Cedar Ave.  It has been there for a number of years and is absolutely amazing!!!  This photo is from the highway.

This photo is at the end of the driveway.
