Today I am sharing another of our family Christmas traditions...delivering our Christmas goodies to some of our special friends...nothing fancy or expensive, just something to brighten their evening and let them know we love them. This year we put together some hot cocoa treat bags, complete with Rudolph Hot Chocolate, mini marshmallows, candy canes, and Peyton's homemade chocolate chip cookies.
Last night after Steve got home from work, we loaded into the car and drove around town, delivering our treats. The Christmas music was playing and light snow was falling! We had so much fun together driving around looking at all the lights. When we had delivered that last package, we picked up a pizza, headed home, and watched Elf. It was a wonderful Christmas-y evening.
All ready to assemble...
And all ready to go!
Today we are enjoying our All is Bright Yankee candle.
To be honest, it is not one of my favorites.
It is a mix of citrus and musk.
But it sure is pretty!

ReplyDeleteWe watched Elf too for the Twitter party!! And we ordered pizza and had hot chocolate. I love your little goody bags. What a sweet idea!!
ReplyDeleteOh and any candle that ends in musk is not my favorite scent either.

Cute idea! Much easier then baking, baking, baking, and more baking. (And trying not to eat it all before it goes out the door! Ha!)
