It was a LOT of fun! It was sponsored by UL and I'm so glad they reached out and invited us!
We talked about ways to be safe this holiday season and then the kids were able to make some wreaths!
And then, surprise! Santa stopped by to visit with us! This was quite unexpected and a big hit with almost all the children. (My 10 year old is now too old to sit on Santa's lap - which I admit depressed me, but I didn't want to push the issue with her).
My 7 year old, however, is simply in love with Santa and was SO happy to see him! And she had to show him her wreath when it was done
The 3 year old wasn't sure at first, but then moved his chair next to Santa and took a few pictures (although, he never managed to get on Santa's lap, but that's okay!)
As a bonus, I was able to meet Kim (who blogs at Hormone-Colored Days) for the first time face-to-face. We connected through The Motherhood originally and then through twitter, so it was nice to actually talk without a screen!
All in all, it was a lovely day and I'm so glad we decided to head down there! =)
It was great meeting you, too! It's so nice to meet the people behind the avatars, screen names and blogs.
