Our visit with St. Nick

Merry Christmas!This year Santa came for our Ward Christmas Party and the cousins had a lot of fun. All the kids had their own agenda for having a good time. Courtney and Boston got into lots of things that they should have had adult supervision for. Luckily the punch did not spill and only one Christmas ornament was broken despite Corkies great arm. She through a Christmas ball clear across the gym, no joke. Anne Dee was a flirt with her new hand waving skills, she made sure to make everyone smile with her. And Colby was busy being passed around by all the young women in the Ward. They all love to take their turns and Colby does not mind. Colby's first time sitting on Santa's Lap. In fact, it was Courtney's first time not crying on Santa's Lap. It was shocking to see that Courtney walked right up to Santa on her own and she enjoyed every minute of looking at him. Courtney told Santa what she wanted for Christmas, of course it would have to be something that is out of production. Courtney asked for a Rainbow Barbie (meaning Barbie and the Magic Rainbow). Santa told her that she would get one. He better have some good Magic up his sleeve. Colby feels that he does not receive enough cuddle time at home, so he he looks for another source. The young women are more then help him with his needs. Truly a match made in heaven.
Santa felt that he needed one more picture with his number one on the nice list, ME. It was especially fun since Santa looks remarkably like an old co-worker of mine, named Roy.
On a side note, this day was the first time Colby grabbed a toy and put it in his mouth, he is becoming a big boy (in all sense of the word big) much too fast.
