Santa and first "snow"

We had our first "snow" storm this morning. The girls were so excited to go play in ALL the white stuff. They ate breakfast as quick as they could then they put on their snow gear including hats, scarves, gloves, snow pants, boots, and coats and ran out the door. Their friends across the street were just as excited. Don't you love all the snow! You might have to look hard to see it but I promise it is there.


This afternoon we went to see Santa! We went to a place called Blind George's, a local glorified news stand that sells magazines and famous popcorn and the only place in town that Santa visits before Christmas. The kids were excited, especially the girls. I was afraid Care Bear would be too scared but she did great! Jaco asked for Bakugan stuff and a new DS, La-La asked for a camera, barbie, puzzle, and guitar and Care Bear asked for a Barbie car and a camera.

Jaco might be getting too old for this but I am glad he humored me!
Do you like the wad of green gum in La-La's mouth?We got Care Bear to look at Santa because we asked her to see what color Santa's eyes are. He asked her how old she is so she said "fwee!" He said he will take her home with him since she is free! When we got home she kept talking about Santa wanting to take her but she wants to stay with us!

Aida was still terrified of Santa! I figured it was going to be that way, so I kept telling her beforehand that Santa is nice, and if she wants a gift from him, she had to like him! I know I'm a horrible mom! But it didn't work anyway!

I know it's been 6 months but your kids have grown so much, especially Care Bare!
