Mom always goes with me to take the kids to Clabber Girl each year to see Santa Claus. This is sooo helpful because it's always a madhouse and having a wingman to help with the kids is essential. After we ate lunch we did a craft or two then I stood in the Santa line while Mom took the kids to listen to Mrs. Claus read a story and do some more crafts. It's such a fun experience, but goodness, it's a little exhausting.
My children were so excited to see Santa. Evangeline asked Santa for books and old fashioned candy. Jed asked him for Star Wars toys. They were both on the Nice list.
Evangeline told me that she is pretty sure this Santa is the real Santa because he has a really expensive looking staff that doesn't look like one you could by in any store.
Jed was so excited to see Santa. He trotted right up and hopped up on his sleigh. Jed wasted no time letting him know about the Star Wars toys on his list. When he felt he had sat there an adequate amount of time he started to descend the sleigh forgetting about the candy cane. Santa had to call him back for it. The whole deal is just precious every year.
Here's the official Santa picture....
They both got little snowflakes painted on their cheeks....
I have a picture just like this of Evangeline, from what seems like only a few years ago, after leaving Clabber Girl Country Christmas.....
We were all needing a nap....
