Here Comes Santa Claus...

There are so many fun things to post at Christmas time! I am a blogging fool!

We took the kids to see Santa at the mall today. We waited in line for 90 minutes but it was worth it! They were so excited to sit on his lap and tell him what they wanted for Christmas. (Hannah anything Barbie and Nick anything Diego!) They also smiled so sweet for the camera! Next year we'll remember to go earlier when it isn't so busy. But these cute smiles were worth the wait! :)
Last night we also went to the Ethel M. Chocolate Factory with our good friends the Beisners. We had some yummy hot chocolate and walked through their lighted Cactus Garden! (only in Vegas baby!) I don't know if the kids had more fun seeing the lights or running around with Luke & Hailey!

It's been a fun and busy Christmas season! We can't wait to do even more!

Can you believe this snow? AGAIN?! I am loving it. I only hope it will keep up through next week. Probably not, but I can hope.

You know, we always go down to the strip during the week, and it's not bad! It wasn't busy hardly at all. We went and did lunch at the Rio, then headed over. We were out of there by 3:00. You should try that.

You ARE a blogging fool, and i'm loving it!!! So, what's it like to have kids who are at peace with Santa's lap? Look at those big smiles, too cute! Never been to the Ethel M. Chocolate Factory ... but i heard chocolate and of course i'm interested! =) You'll have to give us the 411 on that and the Cactus Garden ... sounds like fun! Alright Nigbur's ... we expect another snowman by morning ... we're rounding out our third ... you better keep up! =)

okay really the hot chocolate wasnt that yummy. We had so much fun and I am glad we were able to go with ya. We are so going to miss your fun family! You are so nice that you waited that long in line for Santa. I sure hope that your kids get what they want:) I keep blogging about the silly snow. You would think that we have never seen it.

We only waited about 30 min. for Santa. Probably because we went before lunch. It feels like I haven't seen you in forever. I guess thats what happens when we stop walking at night. Where were you last night?
Let's get together next week while the kids are out of school. See you soon.

I seems like you always have a new post, good for you. You guys have been busy this Christmas season. I am glad we have gotten to see you the last few weeks. Have a great time in SLC. We will have to play again in January before baby Jameson comes. Yeah!
