Jolly Old St. Nicholas

Early in December we had our annual night with Santa at my parents' house.  We love our Santa!  My dad got some really good pictures this year.  It helped that none of the kids were scared at all.  Nate walked right up without being prompted to tell Santa that he wanted a "life-slaber" for Christmas. 

I love that face.

Natalie waited patiently for her turn and sweetly told Santa that she wanted a butterfly net for Christmas.  We just love her simple wishes. 

She even got to wear Santa's hat!

Elizabeth told Santa that she wanted an American girl doll and a telescope. 

Look at that beautiful smile!
