Here Comes Santa Claus

Our SS class hosts a very fun Santa party each Christmas. One lucky man gets to dress up like the big guy and pass out presents to all the kids. You'll notice there are no posted pictures of Tessa on Santa's lap. She screamed like we were absolutely torturing her and the picture is so sad. No more Santa pictures for awhile Baby, I promise.




Tessa is currently into bows and likes to pick them out herself. She is wearing three at once in this pre-party picture. Not just any girl can pull off the triple bow, but she matches and doesn't she look cute? We settled on one big bow with two different colors for the party.


Hanging out with our friends C and S.

Sharing a cupcake with S. More sugar please!

We may not like sitting on Santa's lap, but we do like receiving presents. Mickey and Minnie stuffed animals are a hit, at least for about five minutes. That's pretty good in toddler world.

Last year was a little crazy when most of our little darlings were still babies. Now that all those babies are fully mobile toddlers, it's especially wild! But that's the beauty of this party, it's totally kid oriented. Here they have formed a sort of conga line where they burn off a little energy. Can you tell they are on a sugar high?!
