We got together for dinner at Derrick's mom's house a little before Christmas. After dinner, we had a fun visitor. Santa Claus came to grandma's house.
Santa sat down and had all the kids sit down across from him. He held up a black leather book and asked, "Who can tell me what this is?" Scotty yelled out, "Scriptures!" Great guess (and I was very proud), but it happened to be Santa's "Naughty and Nice" book.
Santa talked to the kids for awhile and asked some questions about how nice the kids had been this year. Scotty sat very quietly. I'm sure he wanted to look as "nice" as possible so that maybe Santa would believe him when he claimed that he had been a nice boy. (Oh, and don't be jealous of Scotty's Transformer rain boots.............they're freakin awesome!)
One by one, each kid got to go sit on Santa's lap and Santa gave them a present. Scotty had told me earlier that he didn't want to sit on Santa's lap but he would stand next to him. I guess when Santa was really there in front of him, he changed his mind.
Santa even had something for Korbin!
After Santa left, the kids decorated some gingerbread cookies that I had made. The boys also had a Nerf gun war. They had each received a little mini Nerf gun in their gift bag. Korbin got a stuffed reindeer in his bag and loved sucking/chewing on whichever part he could get into his mouth. Thanks Santa ( and Nolan, Missy for setting it up and Grandma for, well, you know what part!) The kids LOVED it!
