A Holiday Trip to Asheville

Thanks to Covid it has been a while since we have made it to Asheville to see Grandma and Grandpa so we decided to fit a quick trip in between the end of school and Christmas.  We made sure to fit in some holiday fun starting with a trip to the Holiday Lights at the Arboretum.  The gnomes were the overall favorite though Carter was pretty pumped about his Reese's smores too.  Up next we visited the Grove Park Inn to check out the Gingerbread competition.  We also fit in a trip to Target to spend some Christmas money and time at a trampoline park to get out all the extra energy. 

Santa Visits

As in past years we visited a few different Santa's this year to make sure we had a chance to make sure EVERYTHING made it onto our Christmas lists.  Up first was Jeff Rothman where the kids appreciated Hot Chocolate and cookies while dad got a beer.  Avery asked for a Roblox Gift Card, fluffy chair and a rainbow high dollhouse.  Parker wanted a dirt bike, baseball cards and a phone.  Carter couldn't come up with anything for his list but he did request to wear matching PJs for the pictures.

Up next we went to Phipps Plaza to see their Santa.  Avery wanted rainbow high dolls, car and dollhouse, a new scooter and Legos.  The boys weren't interested in making lists.  

Up last was a visit to see Santa at our neighborhood clubhouse.  Mimi came as well and we all wore festive hats to celebrate.
