Today we went to Steve's company's kids' Christmas party. (Wow! That's a lot of possessives!) The party is one of the reasons we love Steve's company so much. They really value families, which we appreciate, and they celebrate kids, which we love. So every year they have a party for the kids in the company. Each kid receives a present and gets to participate in games and such. As we all know, Santa is a hit or miss for kids. Some kids are big fans of running up and sitting on Santa's lap and telling him all about themselves. Some think it's a little insane to run up to some man that you don't know and sit on their laps...they think, seriously, people, is this really safe? Our kids have definitely been in both camps at various times in their lives. We have photos of the kids with Santa from every year of their lives so far on the tree. Each year someone is screaming in the photo (or at least looking pretty freaked out). However, this year all three kids RAN up to Santa when it was their turn and jumped on his lap. They loved their presents, they loved the other kids, they loved decorating cookies (see photo of Noah's cookie...mmmmmm, frosting!) and writing on the glass wall at Daddy's work, they loved the whole shebang. Yay!
