Santa startled me a bit

Our niece sent some photos from Christmas Eve. The holiday fun continues here on my blog. Ho Ho Ho

Thanks, Christina!

Santa arrived at party; reindeer "invisible"

I'm sure glad we had our camera with us on Christmas Eve.

At least we now we have proof that Santa Claus arrived and gave out presents to the two good little girls and three good little boys who were there sporting their new pajamas.

Sophia, center, asked Santa where the reindeer were. She said her cousin, Zachary, right, wanted to know. ha ha

Santa told her the reindeer are invisible.

Seasonal question ~ any thoughts?

I just read the lyrics to "Up on the Housetop" and the first line said, "Up on the housetop reindeer pause ..."

I always thought it was "reindeer paws."

Either way works, I suppose.

Ho ho ho

Ralph took this photo last night after I was asleep. Santa was waving to him through the front window!
Quite the capture, if I do say so myself.

And look what Linda gave me

This award warms my heart. Santa rocks!
I'm a Yuletide person, through and through. I was born on Dec. 29, the day before my father's birthday... And when I became a mother for the first time, I had my daughter on Dec. 29. Some people say we are a lot alike. I wonder why...



I stole Linda's info about this honor:
This award originated at Santa's Community Blog and can be passed on to as many other bloggers as I'd like. According to Santa, the Spirit of Christmas Award:

"Quite simply it is those that have a generous and giving nature. Those who care about others. Those who have a kind word to say or a broad shoulder to lean on in the times that others need that. Those who display the "Spirit of Christmas".

There are many people I would like to pass this award along to, but since Linda kindly gave the award to my husband as well, and he and I share several blog friends, I will only choose three: Lynn, Odat, and Michael C.
(Michael's birthday is on Christmas Eve, so naturally he loves Christmas too!)

Awardees can pick up the award code here and then pass it on to whomever they also feel displays the "Spirit of Christmas".

Thank you, Linda, for thinking of me.
