the jolly old elf

We met Santa yesterday.  Wade was so excited, he's been waiting so long to see him.  

Santa was not quite his jolly old self, which disappointed this mama.  Luckily, Wade didn't mind and nicely told Santa that we would like presents.  Nothing in particular, just presents...made me laugh.  

Sam just stared at the big man a little nervously.  But when he spotted me again, gave me a big cheese grin just in time for the photo to snap.  

Great Company

Last weekend Phil & I got dressed up and headed to his work Christmas party.  It was nice to get out without the kiddos and enjoy some adult conversation.  

We even managed to get a decent picture of the two of us, in Phil's favorite prom pose.  

girl day

We had our annual girl party today at the ballet. It was beautiful, as was the company. I love these ladies more than they know. Thanks for a great afternoon.
