Ho Ho Ho!!

After a long week for a sick little boy (which we finally found out he had strep), he was very excited to get out of the house.  Tonight was the town's Winterfest Lighted Parade.  People amaze me at how creative they are at decorating, especially moving vehicles!  Afterwards, we went and stood in line to Santa and Mrs. Claus.  Their reindeer were a little sluggish and the workers announced it would be another 15 min (we had already been there for 15 min) before Santa and Mrs. Claus made it.  T looked at me like "do we stay?"  So I start asking the kids if we should come back another night.  AT starts crying and when I ask him what's wrong, he says "I want to see Santa."  After the week he's had, I couldn't say no.  Luckily, Rudolph must have gotten the sleigh moving because not more than 5 min later, Santa showed up.  AT was so excited to see him that he kept trying to run up and hop on his lap.  When it was finally his turn, there was no holding him back.

AD was excited to relay her request to Santa.  AJ wasn't sure she needed to go sit with Santa, but after some nudging, she seemed okay with it.  She ended up telling Mrs. Claus what she wanted, so let's hope that message gets to Santa. ;-)

AT, Santa, AD, AJ, Mrs. Claus

One more day of school (concerts and Christmas parties) and then it's time for a break!  Can't wait.

Enjoy your day!
