Santa is a HOT topic around our house this year. It's been a lot of fun as the girls remember last year and they kind of know what is coming up. The girls have been very aware of Good and Bad decisions, particularly Tyler who has been making a conscious effort to make good decisions. She can often be talked out of bad behavior by asking her if she's making a good or bad decision.
We went to a Christmas Party at the Colin's on Saturday night where Santa dropped in to say HI and give a gift to the kids. On our way there a song came on the radio with bells playing in the background and the girls brought it to our attention that they could hear Santa's bells. When Santa did arrive although McKenna was excited she was still quite apprehensive and quickly hid. Tyler on the hand was so excited she stood as close to Santa as we'd let her hopping from one foot to the other dancing while she waited for her name to be called out
Tate was sabotaged-he was in the kitchen with his father when his name was called. Without even thinking about it we wisked him over and when he got a good view of Santa he death gripped his Dad and started bawling.
McKenna did finally come out of hiding to watch the festivities and when she saw Tyler's gift from Santa her fear vanished and she was more than willing to go sit on Santa's lap.
It was a really fun night for all. Thank you Colin Family for inviting us all into your home!
