I give all credit to my sweet friend Shar for this idea, but I absolutely LOVE it!
I made some "Golden Tickets"and we coordinated our secret night with the Billingsley's. We hid them under the kids pillows before they went to bed. We let them lay in there for about 10 minutes before Brian and I came in and told them to check their beds for a golden ticket!
They were SO excited! Especially once we told them they were waiting for the "Nala Express"....the Billingsley's car:-)
Everyone was in their christmas jammies and ready to go!
Mr. Mike punched tickets in a funny accent...the next day Ella asked,
"That was Abbey's dad last night right?!?"
We hopped in the car and went to look at Christmas lights in the neighborhood. The kids were all crammed in the back having a blast!
We decided to make a snack stop at Lolli's...she never fails us!
All the kids cheered as we turned onto their street:-)
We had the best night and can't wait for next year!
This was our new tradition we added this year:-)
