Portrait with Cookie

We went to the tree lighting ceremony at the Biltmore, conveniently scheduled during the power outage so we could enjoy their lights (on the tree and off) AND get a free cookie dinner. 

I mistakenly thought that I could magically get THE photo for our Christmas cards at this event somehow.

After no time at all it was apparent that the cookie-love was much stronger than any desire to pose for photos.

I did manage to grab one cute shot with no cookie in the frame, plus I really enjoyed the event as a kick off for the holidays!
