Check Out This Must See Winter Village In Manalapan This Weekend – 943thepoint.com

Who is ready for some Christmas magic?  This weekend it is Anne Ellen Christmas Tree Farm in Manalapan for the WIN!  If you haven’t been you HAVE to go!

The fun starts with a hayride that brings you to the winter village!

This place is super-cute!  The Village at Anne Ellen is serving up hot chocolate while the family can stroll through a winter wonderland.  I love a good trail (and this one has been decorated by some busy little elfs) make sure to bring your boots!  The kiddos can enjoy the farm animals too! If you haven’t picked the perfect tree yet they have plenty. Even if you already have your tree this is a perfect family tradition!

They thought of every detail like a North Pole post office too!  How else is Santa going to get that all important Christmas list letter?  New this year…they added a sweet outdoor holiday village with thousands of lights all over the place!  Of course your kiddos will be able to sit with Santa for a free photo! Here are some more details.  I hope you have a wonderful time and tell Santa that I’ve been a good girl and Lou Russo has been very naughty! 😉
