Christmas Tree Lighting


Our neighborhood hosted a Christmas Tree lighting on Saturday. The kids gathered 'round for a reading of 'Twas the Night before Christmas. As soon as the story was finished, a special visitor showed up...Santa! The kids took turns sitting on his lap and telling what they wanted for Christmas. Cody was a little hesitant at first, but managed to tell Santa that he wanted a really big spider. Later he changed his mind and made sure that Santa knew that he really wanted a really big firetruck! Abby wasn't scared to see Santa at all. She walked right up and said hello and pulled his beard. I think she was impressed to see him wearing the same outfit she had on. She was so cute!

After decorating the neighborhood Christmas tree, we went to the fire pits to roast marshmallows...yum! Mr. Kevin ended up getting a marshmallow stuck to his butt. BB had to pull it off for him...everyone got a good laugh out of it. Our dog, Miga, came over to join us and I think she must have had 30 marshmallos from the kids feeding her...yuck! It was a fun night.
