Christmas time in Florida is pretty amazing. It’s the second week of December and we’re walking around in tank tops and flip flops over here. While some cool weather would be nice for Christmas, I don’t mind the sunshine one bit.
We may not have snowy landscapes or cold weather when it comes to our Decembers, but we do have one thing: Grinchmas.
It’s one of my favorite holiday traditions and I was so excited to take Jack this year. And although his face may not look like it, I promise he was excited too. It’s gotta be confusing to fall asleep in the car and then wake up to snow everywhere.
Jack’s experience meeting the Grinch:
1. Laugh a little bit at the green fuzzy guy, because he looks funny and he tried to sit in your stroller.
2. Realize that you are, in fact, standing next to the Grinch, and realize maybe you should feel a little panicky about this situation.
3. Promptly burst into tears.
4. Hold on for dear life in case the Grinch tries to snatch you away.
He was much happier after we got him away from the Grinch. It was hilarious and I’m so glad we waited in line like tourists to see his expressions.
Universal puts on their very own Macy’s Day Parade and it’s so adorable. Jack loved it so much. I’ll never forget the look of awe on his little face while he watched all the floats and saw all the characters dancing around to Christmas music.
His first Santa sighting!
I love Christmas. I love Florida life. If you’re ever in the sunshine state in December, you absolutely must go to Universal and experience Grinchmas for yourself.
Did you do any fun holiday things this weekend?
