Meeting Santa...

When they saw him for the first time at a "Breakfast with Santa" event a little local church, both kids clung to Jon's legs. So we came back to Santa a little later and...
J.R. had no intentions of sitting in any one's lap b/c he wanted to run around...

and Anna Kate told him what she wanted...probably a lollipop since that's what she always says she wants for Christmas if you ask her :) Maybe I'm a bad parent for not taking my kids to see "real Santa" aka "Santa at a mall" this year, but whatever.

Anna Kate found a spare Santa wig from a costume Jon wore as Santa for a fundraiser for the PTA...she thought it was for a clown and it was really funny that it was in daddy's office :)

The BEST pictures were from when we went that evening to "A Night in Bethleham" at a church down the street and Anna Kate rode a camel and she and J.R. got to pet goats, sheep, camels and donkeys right in the pen with them!! And of course, I forgot my camera. It was a fabulous event, though.
