{Caroling}

This year, the mom's group in our neighborhood decided to organize a hayride for caroling!  The minute I heard about it, I knew we had to partake.  And boy did it not disappoint! 

There were three time slots with two hayrides per time slot so as many people in the neighborhood could go.  You better believe we were on the first one with a candycane in hand!  Here is the other hayride that I got a picture of...

We drove around singing and then parked on a particular street and went door to door.  The elementary school kids lead the evening with their sweet voices, but the parents and younger kids had a blast too.  People came out of their house for a song or two.  And we were on our way after saying "Merry Christmas"!  People seemed real appreciative.

Luke loved the hayride and running around with his friend Cooper who also came!

Ben also loved the hayride!  When we were on the move on the hayride, he would hang on to the side and just bounce.  It was so cute.  But he also really liked the singing.  I think all around he had the most fun of the night :).

Cousin Molly came with us and seemed to really enjoy herself!  She is full of life and loves anything that is fun and busy, so she was in heaven!  Look at that smile...

I hope they make this an annual thing because it was so fun.  I know Luke will enjoy the singing too as he gets older and he learns the classic songs like Jingle Bells and Frosty the Snowman.  This sure did help us get in the holiday spirit since it has been a bit tough with all the illness going around this house.  So I was very appreciative of the ladies that organized this.  Fa la la la!
