This time of year is busy anyway, but I feel like we got off of the plane after our recent trip to Texas and just hit the ground running. We have had the joyful pleasure of having our little friend Trinity with us a few days this week and she and Aron have been having more fun than two four year olds should be allowed to have. We got a nice snow on Thursday evening out of the blue. It was the first time Trin had seen snow, so she was all about it. Aron's a little more experienced with the white stuff, but just as enthusiastic.
We have been enjoying many of the usual warm winter treats around here, too. You know, hot tea, hot chocolate, warm soups.....girled cheese sandwiches. Yep, Aron says GIRLed cheese, and heaven help you if you try to correct him! He get's very defensive! Girled cheese, it is, baby.
Last weekend we participated in Breakfast With Santa, which is sponsored by a local church. The kids hear a Christmas story, have breakfast, see Santa, do a craft, and get a photo with Santa and a treat bag. All of it is free, too! We love free!
Well, Aron walked in to see Santa like he'd had an appointment for weeks. "Hi, Santa!" he said, waving as he walked up to him. I just stood back behind the photographer and listened to their little chat. Santa was very sweet and took his time with him. And the kicker that makes me all misty-eyed? My four year old-Star Wars lovin-Batman emulating-tough guy asked Santa for a teddy bear!
Snowball fight!

Aron and Santa. Look at the way Aron is palying with his beard! So sweet!

so sweet about the teddy :) hope santa brings it
Very fun! I love when they have their own way of saying things. I hate to correct them because eventually it will fade and we will miss their mispronunciations!
Awww! I'm taking my kids for photos with the big man tomorrow, but it's not nearly as cute at their age. Aaron's a doll!
