A visit to Santa

Luckily, we caught word that Santa was in town, so we headed over to see if we could catch a few words. He’s quite the popular man, by the way. We stood in line for about 2 hours. With four kids, that isn’t something you ever look forward to. Amazingly enough, they were all very well behaved and it wasn’t an issue!
All the little ones were able to get a couple minutes with Saint Nicholas. Alissa, whose been talking up a storm for weeks about what she would be telling Santa, actually never said a single word once she got to spend some time with him. All the others had no issues laying down their expectations, even Katie. Below are some pics that have been added to the 2008 Christmas album.

Alissa’s 3rd birthday party

Well, everyone gone home now, but it was a great time. Had a few friends come over and with only Alissa and Isaac up right now, it’s quieted down a bit. Leah and I are beat, for sure, but really enjoyed having everyone over. Most of this whole past week has been spent trying to get the flooring down and the house in shape for the party. Everything came together well though. I didn’t get all the floor down, but did get the important parts done.
I’ve uploaded all the pics from today to Alissa’s birthday album. Yeah I know, record time. It usually takes me about 3 months minimum to get things up to date.
