Here comes Santa Claus

The anticipation is killing them!

Each year our town teams up with representatives from the North Pole to bring Santa and Rudolph down to ride on top of a festively decorated fire truck with horns blaring and wave at all the kids. We had advance notice this year, and we were ready and waiting by the front door so we could run outside when the fire truck went past our house.

Abby loved waving to Santa and even wished him an enthusiastic "Merry Christmas!" as he rode by. Caleb was rightly terrified of the sirens and the flashing lights, and may be scarred for life by the experience. Luckily for him, the next time Santa is near the children will be nestled all snug in their beds, so he shouldn't have to face the guy in red again until the time for next year's Christmas picture rolls around.
