Third Annual Brookfield Mowtilla

This is big time, small neighborhood fun! In Wilmington, the weekend after Thanksgiving, the NC Holiday Flotilla takes place at Wrightsville Beach. All the boats dress up in a float-like manner and join the flotilla parade. Well, the flotilla now has competition with the Mowtilla in Granny and Grandaddy's neighborhood! It really is quite fun. A few years ago we decorated the trailer with garland, lights and bows. This year we stepped it up with a nativity theme. Our characters were too cute.

The parade of cyclists, mowers, etc was longer this year than ever!

Fun way to ride, for sure.

The Cooks as Calf, Comet, Claus and Carpenter.

Mary and Joseph.

Mary was in character most of the night, watching closely over baby Jesus.

Daddy even rigged our ride up with lights and music!
