This is what our Santa looked like eating the cookies and milk left for him by 3 excited children in Greenfield...
What did yours look like?
David was so full already and was heading off to bed when I reminded him of his duties as Santa. Sarah Brooke was in bed when she realized that 3 carrots was not going to be enough for all of the reindeer. We started trying to list the names of them and she knew where they were in a book. We came up with 9 so we added just the right amount of carrots. Somebody shouted (we had family staying with us) that santa was in Indianapolis and she fired off to bed and we never heard from them again till morning.
We woke them up to have our family Christmas. The night before we offered for our overnight guests to join us or they were welcome to sleep in.

When Mark (chose to sleep in) greeted us Christmas morning he said "let me guess what you all got for Christmas...a mega phone and a flute recorder". How on earth did he know!!! When I talked to my Dad on the phone later that morning he said that he thought this was a good year for him to be there and our family to be here. Good times!!!
More memories to post later.

Wow! You actually were able to catch a photo of Santa(minus his beard and fancy red suit! :)). BTW....Did the carrots get eaten, too???? Sounds like ya'll had fun Christmas!!! Happy for ya! Now... it's on to an exciting 2009!
Santa sure has slimmed down since I last saw him at the mall! (Doesn't David know he could put the cookies back in the box and not actually eat them??) Glad you guys had a great Christmas! Hope you have a Happy New Year as well.
