Santa Brunch

Last night we survived enjoyed the last ever Holidazzle Parade.  It was cold beautiful and the people were everywhere festive!  The kids thought the floats were really cool, but I think they got even more of a kick out of the light rail train that was within inches of us.  I completely forgot to snap a picture while we were there, oops.  We spent some very stressful quality time in the minivan afterwards while it took us an hour just to get out of the ramp.  That hour included one potty break, where Bennett and I made a mad dash to the hotel downstairs while the rest of the family waited in the line in the van.  Oh well, that is what family memories are made of!

 
Today, we continued in the Holiday spirit and went to brunch with Santa.  The kids were excited to see him, but in the moment were quite unsure about the whole thing.  There were no tears, but they seemed pretty apprehensive.  Bennett told Santa he wanted a monster truck and Tatum told him she wanted toys.  I was quite impressed when Santa told us he remembered seeing us last year at the brunch.  Considering he delivers to billions of houses each year, I felt pretty special that he remembered us:) 

It's so fun to see how excited the kids are this time of year. 
With the spirit of Christmas in the air, it makes everything extra special.


 
Merry Christmas
