This Christmas is going to be memorable!
The kids are already beside themselves with Santa excitement.
Allie was SO excited on Sunday when we took them to talk to Santa Claus. She ran everywhere we went that day with a huge smile on her face. This is a far cry from her Santa experience 3 years ago when she peed on his lap.
Both kids were so sweet talking to Santa. I intentionally left my camera at home, so I could focus on their interaction with Santa.
Allie told Santa she wanted an American Girl doll. WHAT?????!!!!!! I'm glad we took the kids to see Santa early. This was the first I have ever heard of this request.
G told Santa he wants a sleeping bag.
On to other news...We were invited to attend "Back to Bethlehem" with my neighbor, Miss Mickie.
Miss Mickie's church creates the town of Bethlehem and you walk through, in costume.
They have hot baked bread at the bakery, fresh fruit at the fruit stand, meat at the butcher shop, etc.
S and G are walking passed the Blacksmith.
After you walk through the town, you head inside the church to warm up with a bowl of hot soup and hot cocoa.
G LOVED his costume. As we were leaving he said, "I like this place, I very like my costume".
It was such a fun experience. One that I know will be repeated each holiday season. A fun family tradition has been born. Thank you Mickie for the invite.

What a fun family tradition! And it's so nice to see children who are happy to sit in Santa's lap...right now we force ours to sit in his lap so we can capture their fear on camera ;) I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!
