Biola University Christmas Tree Lighting

 Yea for Christmas,

candles,

and the annual Biola Christmas tree lighting.

 

 The Biola car.  Not the best picture but it was cool.

 A sister and friend.

 One of my favorite parts every year is the lighting of the candles.

A wave of warmth and light starts in a corner and slowly grows.

Magical.

Of course there was a moment a certain girl and toddler where changing places 

and a styrofoam cup caught on fire.

But it was put out before anyone noticed.

 Awesome music.

LOVE live Christmas music.

Of course, the huge tree that was lighted.

 The couple who pushed the button to light the tree were 90 year old newlyweds.

They dated at Biola.

He asked her to marry him but she had to go home to her parents

and didn't have the money to go back to see him.

They both married other people and had 45 year plus marriages.

Both widows, they met up again and are now Biola Betty and Bob newlyweds.

 

 The snow in the lights of the decorations, so pretty.

Lots of snow.  

The girls were over the top excited. 

Good job, Biola!
