I can't imagine a child not believing in Santa Claus. I know I'm prejudice, but I don't think there is a child in the whole world who loves Santa as much as Sier. He thinks Santa was put on the Earth just for him. Sier prays for him on a nightly basis, invites him to his birthday parties, and talks abut him non stop. Yes, we invited him to Sier's Birthday party. Santa couldn't figure out how to show up to a party filled with little kids in February and not leave with a room full of disappointed children....so, he came to see Sier on his birthday. He thought it was such a normal thing to have Santa come on your birthday just to see you. Last year if he would see a Santa he would walk right up to him and just start talking to him. He even grabbed a few Santa hands he saw walking around. The Santa's are great! (especially the one who came to his birthday)////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Every year we try to take the kids to see Santa arrive at the Riverton City Hall on a fire engine. We wait in the cold for over an hour to be one of the first in line. We play with cousins, and sing songs while we wait. When the kids see the fire engine coming down the street it is amazing to watch all of their faces. We get to sit on Santa's lap and Mrs. Claus gives the kids a fun treat. After we see Santa we go get some crafts to make, decorate a sugar cookie, eat scones & hot chocolate, and go for a hayride. The kids have such a fun time going with cousins, and running into friends they know from school, church, or the neighborhood. Somehow Craig figured out how to but in line without being rude...I don't know how that happens, but he had everybody hot chocolate and donuts before I walked to the end of the line to wait my turn! I hope we can all still believe in the Magic of Christmas, no matter what age we are.

You guys are such a cute little family. I love looking at all of your picutres. We miss you guys.
I think I believed in Santa until I was....really old! I was 12. But I LOVED believing in him. Thinking there was just this kind old man with a jolly laugh, kind smile, and TONS of toys. Nothin' wrong with believing in magic. I love that Sier invited Santa to his birthday party. That's awesome!
I had Linc sit on Santa's lap. Nope! Doesn't like him! I'm excited for my kids to be older and do all the fun Christmas things. I get to be lazy this one:) Oh and I love your fam pictures!
What a fun, crazy night that was. We need to always do it. The kids LOVE it....
