The National Tree & Santa.

Last Friday, after Scott's last final of the semester we headed to the National Tree and to see Santa.

I was jumping for joy at the thought that we get to have Scott for two weeks!!!

This is the cutest little Santa's Workshop! I'm so happy we got to go and I think we'll definitely come every year we are here! I had a MUCH better experience here than at our mall's where they rip you off! At this Santa's Workshop they took a picture and gave us a 5x7 for free!!!...and we could take pictures with our camera too! That's what I'm talking about!

...and look how cute it is inside...

...the elf lady in the picture was so friendly...

I'm so excited to see Santa...I just can't hide it! OH! my heck! I'm crazy! I was in kind of a silly mood that day!:)

Brielle was so excited the whole time we were standing in line until she actually saw Santa and then she started freaking out and crying! We were soooo surprise that she got scared! Braden was such a good sport and after they took the picture he sat on his lap and told him what he wanted for Christmas. Brielle wanted NOTHING to do with him...after we walked out I asked Brielle why she got so scared? She said that he didn't have his hat on.

Later that day, we were saying prayers before bed and this was her prayer:

"Heavenly Father, please bless that my mom might listen to me that the Santa today was different and he didn't have his hat on and stuff...Thank you for the other Santa at the mall that had his hat on and wasn't different..."

I had to convince her that there is only ONE Santa and that this time around Santa was just hot and that's why he wasn't wearing his hat! We shall see how long she believes me...she is just too smart for her own good!:)

So happy to have seen Santa!


Braden was keeping Scott's ears warm.

The White House.

Being silly...the only way that we could get our kiddos to look at the camera!

I miss this man so much when he's studying! He's mine and ONLY mine for the next two weeks. I'm not sharing him with books!

He was checking me out...I think he likes me too...:)

Totally cool Santa's Workshop. It's funny to have seen the National tree on tv and then see a picture of you standing right next to it...pretty neat. Cute pictures of you and Scott. There's nothing better than when you have your other half home without any other distractions...well aside from the kids of course. :)

Looks like you had a crazy snow storm. I can't believe all the snow in one time. I love catching up with you guys on your blog. Hope you don't mind I check up on you once in awhile. Your little ones are growing up so fast. Love all their darling photos and cute faces. Glad Scott will be home for a couple of weeks. I know Stacey is very happy too!!!. Hope you had a wonderful Christmas and have a great New Year. Thanks so much for the darling Christmas card and thinking of us too. Love you guys. Denise
