The Fab 40’s Christmas Lights🎄☃️Sacramento📍CA | The Foodie Nomads Christmas Special 2025 ~ Part 3 ✝️🌟

If you’re in Sacramento, California during the holidays and wanting to go see Christmas lights, considering going to the Fab 40’s Christmas Lights🎄✨

Located on 40th–49th Street, between J Street and Folsom Boulevard, this is one of our Christmas traditions 💚

Someone shared that their family eats Chopsticks every Christmas Eve🎄🥡 What a fun tradition! If you haven’t seen it yet, be sure to check out the video we made of Chopsticks — we think it’s the BEST Chinese food in Roseville 🥡🤤

We like to park in the neighborhood and walk the streets while sipping on homemade dark hot chocolate ☕️🍫 that I make every year. It’s part of our tradition 🥰If you want the recipe, watch the video we made 👀😋

Before heading to see the lights, we grabbed Carl’s Jr. 🍔🍟

We each got:

☆ a Big Carl 🍔
☆ a Famous Star 🍔
☆ shared regular fries🍟& criss cut fries

It’s easy to get overwhelmed by gifts, spending, and expectations, but moments like this help refocus on what truly matters. One of the highlights was seeing the nativity scene, a meaningful reminder of the true reason we celebrate Christmas ✝️❤️

For us, Christmas is about celebrating the birth of Jesus Christ — the greatest gift of all. God sending His Son, Jesus, to save us and offer eternal life is what Christmas is truly about ✝️🌟

If you’re curious or want to learn more, we invite you to join us at Centerpoint Community Church in Roseville ⛪️ We’d love to have you join us!
