Partying with Friends and Santa's Visit

On Wednesday, December 23 we went to a wonderful get together and Nick and Brooke's home. They are wonderful hosts and we enjoyed visiting, eating wonderful food and the kids loved playing together. Lydia was with her dad so unfortunately she missed the fun. Santa even stopped by and gave the girls singing toys:) Adelle was excited to see Santa!

This picture of Violet and Santa turned out a little blurry. Violet wasn't nervous to see Santa at all and she didn't cry. It was great!

Adelle told us later that she and Randy's daughter had found Santa's bag with his boots in it while they were playing hide and seek. She said she knew he wasn't the real Santa. I just let her know that there are special helpers that aren't Santa, but dress up and talk to children since Santa can't be everywhere at once. That made perfect sense to her :)
