A Visit From Santa

Last week we were invited to a playgroup for the morning.  That seems ordinary enough.  But this was no ordinary playgroup day…on this day Santa was coming!  The grandfather of some of the kids there dressed up as Santa and came to pay us all a visit!  What was extra special was that at first the grandpa was just down there with us dressed normally and he learned each child’s name.  So when he came down as Santa he called each child by their name!  I just thought that was super awesome!  Owen was oblivious but I was excited.  :)

As Santa came down the stairs Owen made a beeline to me…

Santa made his way to a chair and began talking with the children.  Owen continued to play and pay him no attention.  (Owen is way back in the doorway)  :)

Finally he worked up his nerve to get closer to Santa…

And when Santa offered him a treat, he was hooked…

Santa went in for a hug…

But Owen was only good for a low-five…

And really I think he just wanted some candy…
