The Rhema Bible Church lights are meant to be fun for the whole family.
The church officially rang in its 44th year of hosting its Christmas light celebration, and parents are making sure they attend so the kiddos have something fun to do.
The Beltran family attended not only to start celebrating the holiday season, but also to celebrate an early birthday for their daughter, Melody.
"I liked the countdown," said Melody. "It's pretty over here!"
Melody's sisters, Isabel and Valerie, agreed, saying they love to indulge in sweets like cotton candy and hot chocolate.
Admission into the church's light festival is free, and treats like popcorn and hot chocolate are available for purchase.
The celebration runs through January 1.
