Santa

Santa has always come to fill stockings... but other than that, Santa hasn't been a huge thing around here. Well, last week, the girls had a wonderful little Christmas play / concert that we went to. And who was there at the end? None other than Santa giving out candy canes. All the kids went up and got one without any trouble.

The following night, we were invited over to Grandma and Grandpa's house to see a special visitor. Santa was there, waiting for us at the front door. It was funny to hear the kids:

"It's Santa!"
"No, It's grandpa!"

Of course, grandpa came into the living room a little while later and Santa was still there! Wow! That was something for the little ones! Santa had brought each kid an ornament and two candy canes (the ones that are like candy sticks). Peter had fallen asleep before we went over and we had to wake him up. So although he was very excited the first night to go and see Santa, he wasn't sure what to make of the second one. Eventually, with the help of the train controls, Peter warmed up.

At the end of the night on our way back home, Peter turned to me and said "There was two Santas!" Yes, yes there was!
