Then we went to dinner before heading to Light Up Millbridge event in Waxhaw.
Millbridge is a neighborhood next to the kids' elementary school. This year Waxhaw asked them to open the event up to the public and they obliged. So we went!! They have this cool bridge in the neighborhood that they cover in lights. It is beautiful to drive through.
Driving through the bridge and the lit ramada that led to Santa and a large lit Christmas tree in the center of the community.
Waiting in line to see Santa
They had a great Santa (except he doesn't look Jolly in this shot!!) and an awesome tree!
Below are photos of the lit Club house and the luminaries that line all the streets of the neighborhood.
We had a great time and appreciate their hospitality which also included Christmas carols, hot chocolate, coffee, cookies and candy canes. Thank you Millbridge! See you next year. On Sunday it was time for OUR neighborhood celebration here in Lawson!
It was great seeing friends there! We did crafts and had hot cocoa and cookies.
The Lawson Christmas tree. New families to Lawson were asked to hang an ornament on the tree with their family name and year we moved to the neighborhood. Here are the girls hanging our ornament.
Here is our key ornament. It says "First Christmas in our New Home 2013". I think I need to get another one for MY tree!
Photos with Santa (who arrived on a Waxhaw Fire Truck by the way!!)
What a fun day with neighbors and friends. The girls colored, made frames, had treats and cocoa!

We love living in Waxhaw and in such a Family friendly community. We are truly blessed!
