The above pictures are of the courthouse that is in the middle of the square. Sorry for the blurriness of the picture. I'm not real experienced at taking pictures at night, but I'm learning.
Every square needs a gazebo. Isn't it pretty all lit up? 
I'm not sure why the reindeer are pulling a wagon full of hay. My guess is they are mighty hungry.
All the store fronts were beautifully decorated. They played Christmas music too! 
The merry-go-round was festively decorated. Did you notice how there's no one around. We couldn't figure that out either. Last year you couldn't move for all the people.
Lastly I wanted you to see these store fronts. Aren't they beautiful. I thought the pics turned out pretty good considering they are taken through glass. I love the big striped flowers in this window.
I really like all the green and gold in this one.
And in the opposite window of the same store was this beautiful red window.Well I hope you enjoyed the tour and maybe help put you in the Christmas spirit.

What a beautiful town square Susie! So beautifully decorated, I can't believe there was noone out enjoying it.
Gorgeous - how pretty! And how nice that you didn't have to fight crowds, but where was everybody?
Terri
Susie, What lovely pictures. I especially like the striped flowers and the brighter green store front display. Your town square looks very much like ours. Strange though about the absence of crowds this year?!
Your square is beautiful. I LOVE Christmas lights and decorations!!
So pretty and festive! Seeing all of this as you did would really put me in the Christmas spirit! Thanks for sharing!
What a wonderful old fashioned Christmas! I love when the smaller towns go all out for Christmas. There are a few towns near here who have night parades with the floats all lit up. Very fun to see. And after the parades all the stores have special shopping hours with lots of give-aways. Some of them even offer hot cocoa and hot wassil.
I'm glad you braved the cold to take part in the fun. I'll bet you came away with a warm fuzzy feeling inside.
Ooooooh, Ahhhhhhh! Love the pictures! I'm a Christmas light freak. Love the gazebo! So pretty.
You had the whole square to yourself! Very nice photos.

Darla-It seemed like we had the whole square to ourselves. We really missed the crowd!
Susie, "freeze my little tushie off" made me laugh out loud! HA!
Your square is beautiful and sounds similar to my hometown with the courthouse in the square downtown.
I love all the store front windows. Wow--they are gorgeous!
I enjoyed these photos very much!
Daisy-Compared to your weather you probably would have thought it was "comfy" but for us it was cold. Glad you enjoyed Christmas in the square.
