Santa

The kids are so excited for Christmas this year and I love how being around them gets me super excited too, seriously I haven’t been this excited about Santa coming to our house since I was a kid!! Colton talks non-stop about how Santa is going to bring us presents and how he wants a blue bike and a backpack, he says that Kaci needs a pink bike and a backpack, but I am pretty sure Santa will say she is still a little small for a bike. Our ward Christmas party was on Saturday and I took the kids to see Santa while Weldon stayed home with Preston. While we were talking about seeing Santa and sitting on his lap the kids were both really excited but then for some reason Kaci started worrying that he would tickle her and she was stressed about that but still excited. When we got to the church and actually saw Santa Colton was so excited that he looked like he was about to giggle and his smile was so big. He ran right up to Santa and got on his lap and told him all about the blue bike and backpack that he wants. When it was Kaci’s turn she freaked out and started crying and wanted nothing to do with him, so rather then force her up there only to get a picture of her crying and Santa looking really uncomfortable I just opted not to have a picture of her on his lap this year. Here is Colton with Santa.

When we got back in the car Colton got after Kaci for not sitting on Santa’s lap because he was really concerned that because she didn’t tell him what she wanted that she wouldn’t get any presents. I told them that it was ok and we would just mail him a letter telling him what Kaci wants for Christmas. When we got home Kaci was funny though because she told Weldon all about Santa and how fun it was. Silly kids, hopefully next year we get a picture of both of them with Santa, and maybe Preston too!!
