Happy Holidays!

Christmas is right around the corner and that means lots of shopping in the weeks ahead. One thing we bought ahead of time was a Santa costume for each of the twinfants. We actually bought them last year when we first learned Callie was pregnant. They fit perfectly this year and Saxon and Ella were able to show them off at Nick and Amanda's Christmas program tonight.

Here comes Saxon Claus!

Of course, things have been getting into the Christmas spirit since the end of November. The whole trucked out to Arrow Rock the last Saturday in November for the annual hanging of the greens. It was cold and kind of rainy, but we sang Christmas carols and the kids ate Chili and ice cream at the snack shop. Saxon and Ella also got their first visit with St. Nicholas himself, or at least a reasonable facsimile thereof.

Poor old Santa wasn't quite ready for twinfants! He seemed nervous the whole time he held them.
