Merry Christmas Eve!!!! Part 1

Our festivities began at Charlie and Linda's house to visit with Santa Clause before the "big night"! Sebastian did GREAT!! No tears, no screams, no desperate look to Mami for rescue:) He sat happily in Santa's lap and told him what he wanted for Christmas:)

Posing for the camera

"yes Santa, I have been a good boy."

Santa Kiss:)

"Yeah! I got to sit in his lap and he was sooo cool!!" (check out the teeth on the bottom)

happy boy and his candy cane (no he did not eat it- was just happy to hold it)

Who are you?

Today was the Christmas production at church... Santa had a guest appearance. Being in the show I pulled some strings and had Sebastian's first encounter with Santa. Glad to report that there were no screams, no moments of terrors, etc... He just looked at him with a inquisitive look. He gets to see Santa on the Christmas Eve and we will work on getting a smile out of him:)

December Update

As it is in most homes this time of year, the month of December has been a crazy one. Some of you may already know that we had two people in our family pass on to be with the Lord, our brother in law Bill's Grandmother Evelyn and our Uncle Jim. It is hard to loose a family member, especially hard during the Christmas Season... We thank everyone for their support and ask that you continue to pray for the family.

A magical evening in the 'Burg

The first Saturday in December is always spent on the streets of Old Town watching the Christmas Parade. This year was extra special, seeing as this was Sebi's first Christmas Parade. And to add to the magic of the night- it was snowing!!! It was a light snow, but snow none the less!!! On my camera there were only a couple of pictures taken- if I get my hands on the pictures on Kirsten's camera, I will share them:)

The Spirit of Randy lives on!

On Wednesday evening we went to get our tree, it was cold:)

But mom, I can't put my arms down!
