Our ward party was a brunch again with food, singing and then the annual visit from the jolly guy himself. Gabe came with us too, but he was about as thrilled with Santa as Noah... meaning they really didn't even want to get close!
A wise man once said, "In all living, have much fun and laughter. Life is to be enjoyed, not just endured." We have weathered storms that tried to break us, but through it all, we have always tried to find the joy in our journey. Watching our family grow has given us more joy than we ever thought possible. There is joy in the journey, even in the middle of the storms!
I never knew how much love a heart could hold, until they called me mom

Still trying to catch up December
We got to see Santa a few times in December... although Noah really wasn't thrilled that we had to see him at all. Nate on the other hand has all kinds of questions about Santa's home, his ability to visit before Christmas day, his schedule, his likes, dislikes. Really, he just asks too many questions and I am not ready to let his joy and excitement slip away yet, so I came up with rational, reasonable answers that gave him more to think about... and more questions to ask!!!

Santa found some helpers out in the hall....
Some of the family... who is naughty? And who is nice?
We also heard Santa was going to be making an appearance at the pizza place the kids work at, which meant that was a great excuse for me to not have to cook and us to go get pizza. Nate was very excited, but worried that the reindeer weren't going to be able to land in the parking lot and would there be enough room. We told him it would be fine and it's all about the magic of Christmas anyway. He was absolutely certain that he saw hoof prints outside on our way to the truck.
Ho Ho Ho...here comes Santa Claus.
Noah was looking over his dad's shoulder but had no intention of leaving his arms to get anywhere near this guy!
Kami got to visit with Santa for a few minutes....
So did Nate...
