Grandchildrens Christmas Party

My mom hosted a grandchildrens Christmas party this year and I hope it becomes a tradition! The kids started out making gingerbread houses, a HUGE hit..., then they decorated paper with nativity stickers to give to the neighbors, along with cookies we baked, after they sang Christmas carols. But before we went caroling, a very special guest arrived....SANTA!

precious baby...almost 1 year old!

fun Christmas bracelets for the moms
hard at work decorating

the finished houses...
proud baker!
sticker fun
SANTA!
Owen said to me later that day... "you know what's kinda sad?....Santa wasn't wearing his boots. But that's okay, they might have been dirty and he just wore something else" :) that boy doesn't miss a THING!
Gigi was so cautious of Santa, she hardly looked at him in the eye
beautiful girl!
Santa love.
Gracen was super excited about Santa being at Nonni's house! Santa thought she was going to jump out of her skin to get in his lap
telling Santa about her list and how Banks the dog ate it! :(
Layla did not know what to think about Santa
Owen on the other hand thought it was pretty cool...

Layla knows what to think now, and she does NOT like it!
LOVE IT~
Nonni, Santa, and the grandchildren
bye Santa...of course Owen wanted to see Santa fly away and wanted know where the reindeer were...Santa told them he had to walk down the street to see 1 more little boy :)
caroling...these sweet neighbors gave them a gift, a book to read with their Nonni. :)

silly girl
she almost went to sleep while we were caroling...almost.
still caroling...
PRESENTS!!! look at the joy a Target $1 section gift will bring....

I LOVE THIS!
