Santa!

We stopped by to tell Santa hi on Thursday, and to make sure he had the final lists. This is a fun year because everyone likes Santa - even DeAnne talks about him and says she misses him when we're home. Taking a picture on Santa's lap though... that was asking too much of a 3 year old and she was happy to stand nearby.

They gave their wishes to him - Claire wants an American Girl doll and horse. Jillian wants an American Girl doll and dog and cat. DeAnne wants an American Girl doll and horse and dog and cat. You might notice a theme? We've managed to avoid the AG merchandising mania until this year, but now its hitting with a vengeance. It's OK, we try to do all things in moderation I hope and try to keep gifts in their rightful place, remembering Jesus first.

Tonight we'll go to church and make a birthday cake for Jesus tomorrow!
