Christmas in FL part 5 - Lights and Cookies


We started a new tradition last year...

we bake cookies and deliver them to our favorite decorated houses! it is such a FUN tradition and this year we did in FL in Mimi and Papa's neighborhood. so many of the houses are REALLY decorated so it was fun to let the kids pick their favorites and deliver the cookies. Harrison and Jackson worked hard that afternoon getting everything ready for a night out on the golf cart, looking at Christmas lights!

it was SO MUCH FUN! :)

Wasn't that the most fun! Papa's barber shop lady was raving about him bringing his family by to see her house and bringing the cookies just the other day when he went in for his haircut.

One of my favorites is the last one of Papa and the 4 children walking back home. Of course our little Addison had alreay had enough and gone to sleep.

Love,
Mimi and Papa

This was one of my favorite things all through the Christmas Season that we did and it was so much fun to do this at Mimi and Papa's! Good thing we did it there as we never got around to taking cookies to our favorite house in our own neighborhood.

I love that picture of you guys on the golf cart! I only with Harrison was poking his head out so all of you guys could be in it.

I think we need some golf carts parked in our drive ways here in NC. Wouldn't that be fun!?
