Santa and Sledding

Who is this guy?
Visiting with Santa and we didn't even cry!

Getting Ready for the Snow

Today, the boys had their first visit to see Santa Claus. They enjoyed it and were very interested in Santa and his beard. Luke loved pulling on the beard and Liam pretty much just sat and stared at Santa. I had a hard time getting either of them to look at the camera for a picture because they were too interested in watching Santa.

Over the weekend, we took the boys out in the snow for the first time. We were given a sled by some friends in New Jersey and tested it out in the backyard on a slightly "warmer" day for Minnesota in December. They boys seemed to love it, especially Luke. Liam is always a little tentative the first time around with most anything and he was not too sure about the big purple snowsuit we put on him. We got a few hand-me-down snow suits from a neighbor.
Next week, we will be heading to Arkansas to visit my family for Christmas and look forward to the time off, visting with family, and of course-the warmer weather. Have a great rest of the week.

Your boys are getting so big. They are just so adorable. Santa was a big hit for us also. Thank God! I wasn't looking forward to the screaming. We have not been lucky enough to venture outdoors yet to play, hopefully soon! Keep up the photos. Love to see those smiles!

Where do I get a puppy-dog hat like that? (On the other hand, my cat might not understand.)

Take care.
