We had an amazing Christmas once again, and were blessed to spend it with most of our family. (We missed The Grimm's of Arkansas!) We did a lot with extended family and with our own family and it was great. We even had a very special visitor come to our home to make sure he should keep three little boys on his good list...they passed, but I would have to say that they got lucky this year. These boys are keeping me on my toes for sure, and making me earn my stripes. Santa came to talk to the boys about being good and asked them what they wanted this year. He also gave Ethan a good talk about being an example and a good big brother. I was hopeful that it would help, and I think it has a little. I will miss the threats of "Santa is watching you" or "I'm calling Santa right now if you don't stop." I don't understand why that is the most effective at the end of the year...
I tried to explain to E that maybe it wasn't so great to have Santa come visit because that meant that he really had to think hard about whether or not he had been good this year. Anyway, here are some pictures of the great visit!
Hearing the jingle bells...and giddy with anticipation!
Aiden was a lot more into Santa this year, and still can't stop wishing you a Merry Christmas.
And of course, this guy wasn't having any of it!
