There are a lot of events going on this weekend. We started our weekend tonight--and the holiday tree lighting ceremony downtown Oneonta was a huge hit with my kids. The older one danced on both feet while waiting in line to ride on the hay wagon. My two year old was fascinated with the Christmas tree. Many thanks to the Greater Oneonta Historical Society for handing out cocoa and cookies! The carollers also did a great job. We missed Mrs. Claus' story telling, but hopefully she'll come back next year.
