Christmas-ing II

Today, a downtown visit to Santa. The real one. He told the kids in a lilting voice, "Santa loves you." It was very magical. Talmage crinkled up and was shy and Sydney buried herself under Briton's armpit. Clara was oblivious. Jude discussed Rudolph and how Donner is Rudolph's dad. Jude and Santa are old pals since Jude saw him last week. Santa told Jude, "Santa loves you." And Jude said, "Yu-Puh."

Anywaaaay: sites from today's excursion (minus Santa since photos with him cost $$$$$).







Last week Talmage's preschool class performed a Christmas pageant. It included such songs as "Happy Birthday, Jesus." The whole performance left me thinking, "Mormons are sorta boring."
(How many recording devices can you spy?)


Decorating the tree:





A little bit of nutrition to off-set the loads of sweets available at this time of year:

Thanks for sharing some of your Christmas-ing. I especially like Briton and Sydney taking in the tree (I assume), plus Talmage's grin, Clara's tongue, and gazing upward in a crocheted hat.
