A Special Visitor


We had a busy afternoon yesterday.  Early in the day Daddy and O set up the Coast Guard Lionel train by the tree.  O is pretty excited to have a train running in his house.

After nap, we went to a Christmas sing-a-long at a German Restaurant near our house.  O loved the instruments, and seemed especially entranced by the tuba this time.  We had a lot of fun!

Dancing reindeer.
Mamma reindeer and her fawn.
After the music, we went to our neighbors' house for a little Christmas surprise.  Pam had little gingerbread houses  for the kids to decorate with sprinkles and icing.
O and his friend Odin decorating houses (and eating chocolate cakes).

The masterpiece.
 After the houses were decorated, we had a special visitor.  O went right up to him and climbed up on his lap.   As soon as he looked at Santa, O asked "Where is your mouth?".  It was pretty funny.  He also finally told Santa what he wants him to bring for Christmas.  Hopefully Santa will leave a space ship tomorrow night!  I asked O when we got home if he wanted a rocket ship, he told me "No, a spaceship.... it's similar to a rocket ship."  I sure hope Santa knows the difference.
Looking for his mouth.


Merry Christmas!

Still looking for that mouth!
It was really nice of Pam and Ron to arrange for the visit and to invite us.  The kids three toddlers that were there got Caterpillar trucks from Santa and the baby got some little wooden trucks.  It was a fun night.

Merry Christmas! I am sure the music was fun, and it was very nice of your neighbors to include you guys in their festivities. The gingerbread house looks yummy.
