Our visit with Santa

We actually went to visit Santa a few weeks ago but I have been backtracking on the blog.  The kids could not wait.  We made a fun family day out of it.  We went to see Santa, went to Build-A-Bear to make Christmas (surprise) animals, and then to buy gifts for Mommy and Daddy.  We do the trade-off thing and get it done in one day, as they want to be able to pick things out.  This year they even had a list of other family members of what they wanted to buy based on their likes/dislikes.  Jaedyn did a great job.  She is teaching Peyton a little bit along.  They were talking non-stop until we got to Santa's lap.  Then they couldn't hardly speak.  They were in disbelief that they were actually talking to him.  They have always loved him.  Neither have been afraid of him much since they were babies.  Truth be told, it is always one of Mommy's highlights of the season too.  Love seeing that joyful little man! 
Hope you have a blessed Christmas over the next few days.  We start our celebrations tomorrow.  Can't wait to see so many family members I rarely get to spend much time with! 
Don't forget the reason for the season! 
Thank you Lord for your gift of your son Jesus!
