JoLLy oLd St. NicK

What a great Sunday before Christmas we had! We went to my parents ward and their sacrament program was amazing, then I got to listen to my Mom teach gospel doctrine...she did an amazing job. After church both my Grammy and my Nana came for dinner and dessert, it was fun to sit around the table and talk. They both shared wonderful stories and we got laughing hard! The kids played with Lego's and then a special visitor came...SANTA!!! Chloe answered the door and did exactly what she did last year, took off running down the hall. It took her a couple minutes but she warmed up to Santa and sat on his lap to tell him what she wanted for Christmas. Jackson had no problem, and Ella jumped and then started bawling. We all took turns telling Santa what we wanted for Christmas and then he let us pick out a special treat from his sack...Christmas suckers! He promised he'd be back in a couple nights and said he was happy with how good the kids have been this year. Thanks for the special stop Santa!!!

Jackson wants a skate board, Lego's, and a CD player
Chloe asked for a "connected" doll (a barbie and the diamond castle doll, the character's sing a song that says "I feel connected, protected" so she calls it a "connected doll")
Ella just wants this weird guy to leave and Mommy to keep holding on to her
Our Family's been good this year!
