It is possible I use the same title every year when we get a visit from the Big man in the red suit? I just am not sure anything fits quite like that. It has become a family tradition to get together and have dinner in December, just to do it and talk about what is going on with everyone. The kids get to lay it on the line what they want most in the whole world. It's just a lot of fun and we laugh alot. It seems that Santa has this night on his radar, because him and Mrs. Claus ALWAYS stop by on that night. I'm telling you, he is watching!
This year Courtney had mentioned to me that she wanted something special. She wanted a sleigh bell from Santa's sleigh. Sure enough he just knew! They brought each of the kids a gift, a candy cane and sleigh bells made into necklaces by Mrs. Claus herself!!

For anyone who isn't quite sure...this is the REAL Santa and his wife. And here are the reasons we know it to be true.
1. They always come to our house when the whole family is there having dinner
2. We always have our doors locked and Santa has magic to open it without us even hearing him
3. He knows stories about all of the kids and even about their parents when they were kids
4. He always brings a small gift to enjoy before Christmas, and it is always something perfect for each child!

Courtney is letting Santa know she has been very good, kept her room cleaned and only wants a Nintendo DS with a baby game.

Tenley getting her present and sleigh bell necklace. When Santa asked if she had been nice, she decided she better not lie. Her response "well, I will be now"
She told Santa she wants every accessory she could possibly need to look like Tinker Bell, but she doesn't want to actually BE Tinker Bell, she is Tenley!

When Bailey's turn came up, Landon must have been jumping with excitement. He laid it out for Santa that Bailey has been REEEAAAALLLLY good! Bailey and Santa both laughed. Santa made certain that she understood he knew her room wasn't clean. She in turn asked for a new cell phone...but never did make any promises about her room.

Then it was finally Landon's turn. He also wants a Nintendo DS but he wants a Batman Lego game. He told Santa he had been really good and was even working hard on being good at school. For the first time ever Landon was excited I make him clean his room everyday, because he sure jumped at the chance to tell Santa his room is always clean!

Tayler, as always, was more quiet than the rest of the group. Like her older sister and brother, she also wants a DS and a pet game to go with it.

Merry Christmas!
