Visiting Santa

We spent last Saturday afternoon visiting with Santa. Alaina was especially escited to see him and woke up at 6:30 to make her list for santa. it included a yo yo, sunglasses, chapstick and pretty clothes. She asked me to write it down so she could copy it.

THere wasn't a very big line and Santa spend a lot of personal time with each child. He greets each of them with "my how you''ve grown this year" or "look at you, you're so much taller" Santa commends them on how well thry're keeping their room clean and how they need to work a little harder on picking up toys. He is just the best and the kids love him

Micah was the first to see Santa. He RAN and gave him the hugest hug and then spilled his wishlist~ cho cho trains, cars, and firetrucks

Lainie Boo was next and she forgot her list at home. But she shared most of it with Santa. He seemed quite surprised that all she really wanted was a yo yo. He said it's been a long time since he's heard that request.



Isaiah walked up and seemed a bit awkward with santa but santa got him tp cheer up and give a nice cheesy grin. Zaiah told Santa that all he wanted was a kitten. Santa informed Zaiah that he rarely brings live animals anymore after the big accident in '84 when a puppy fell out of the sleigh, they were able to swoop down and save him but it was such a big scare that they don't really do live animals anymore

giving santa a high five
Alorah told Santa that she just wants a webkinz for Christmas. Santa told her that he's gotten lots of request for those this year and he was thinking about getting one for rudolp and what did she think? She said probably get the reindeer one and santa said "nah, he's already got 7 brothers"

Overall it's always a magical trip to see Santa!
