Went to see santa

The thursday before Thanksgiving our town has a big Living Windows on the square. It is an open house to let people know what our town has before Christma, but it has turned into more of a big party. Santa comes in on a fire truck with the lights flashing and the siren blaring. (He came in on a helicopter when I was a kid)

So we went to see him last night. Alex has known for years that santa isn't real, and Donna does also, but she doesn't want to take a chance that he may be real and she didn't tell him what she wants. It was so cute to watch Ethan clap and cheer when he had no clue what was going on. He also spent most of the night singing to the music. I'll post pictures when I get a chance. It was such a good feeling to know that my kids have each picked out 2 things that they want, and that is it. They aren't greedy with a huge long list that they feel they should get. They each picked out 2 things. I didn't prompt them to do that, it is just what they did on their own. Santa was a bit shocked when he heard Chloe's request. lol "know balls and a realy tree." said with a very proud grin. He looked at me like, "is this kid for real" and I repeated it to emphasize it. lol Then after he had talked to Donna and Alex and the kids were walking away, he said "you have a very musical Christmas". Oh, Ehtan is no longer asking for pom-poms, but still says "cars and dad" every time. lol he has no clue, but it is so cute! He will get cars and dad for Christmas. That one is easy.

Today I feel very blessed to have my husband. He has been very good at giving me compliments the last week or so. I haven't even asked him too! I also feel very blessed to have my kidos. They are my world, and keep me on my toes.
