Santa came for a visit

Every year as a family tradition Aaron dresses up like Santa one night and we tell all our family, friends, neighbors and ward members about it. We tell them they can come meet Santa and avoid the lines at the mall and its free! Our kids know its Aaron but still love it so much and treat him like Santa. If they ask questions later we tell them Dad does it for the other kids to see Santa so he is a helper. The kids really get into it too. Hayden has a costume he likes to wear (even though its getting too small) and he is Santa's helper. Paxton this year cried when I sat him on Santa's lap but I think every kid has one of those pictures of them crying on Santa's lap. Maybe next year he won't cry.

Paxton's 2nd try....still crying :(

But Mommy played with him and cheered him up












I didn't take many pictures of everyone else that came (I was too busy chatting) but I know we had a great turn out again this year. It was fun!
