Welcoming the Holiday's

Choo-Choo trains, snow in FL, cookie decorating, bounce houses, cop cars, pop corn, music, helicopters, the big man in red, and fireworks.... We saw all of these things on Friday evening!
I'll admit, Santa's arrival in the beginning of November is a bit early. However, Braiden and I had a fun night together and it was a way to welcome the holiday seasons that are quickly approaching.
On Friday, after work, Braiden and I headed out to our local mall with some friends. They blocked off a large portion of the parking lot and had a bunch of fun and FREE events going on for children. One of the highlights of the night was that it was snowing! Of course, the snow was coming from machines, but for the children here it was such a neat experience.

Decorating a ginger bread cookie... It didn't take long before this cute little cookie got eaten :-)

One of Braiden's favorite parts of the night. Seeing a police car!

A bit blurry, but Santa made it to Jacksonville!
