We were all invited to The Daddy's annual lodge Christmas party this afternoon. It's mostly for the kids. He turned in the kids names and ages a few weeks ago....and then today Santa comes and calls each child up to sit on his lap and gives them a gift. They also had lots of kid friendly food. PB&J's, chips, chicken nuggets, cupcakes, cookies,etc. Mom and I took Ben, Kristian, Kai and Kaden (Nick went to a movie with a friend from church). All the children seemed to have a good time...Ben even saw a couple of kids from school. Kristian and Ben got their faces painted too. Grandaddy looked happy to have us there. He introduced us to everyone (he has been a member for like 50 years...so everyone knows him) and enjoyed watching the kids running around having fun.
Here's some highlights of the afternoon.
We are only home for about an hour and a half. Our churches Christmas banquet begins at 5:00pm. So we are home to wash up (Ben has red cupcake icing EVERYWHERE) and get dressed in our church duds. Chris has opted out of the dinner because of the ODU game tonight (SCROOGE). So it will be just me and the kids. Lauren will meet us there after work.
Hope you and your familes are enjoying the weekend.
*blessings*
*peace*

Yep...she went nuts!
I was like..."mom, step away quick and let me get this picture!"
I figured a crying photo was better than no photo.
And Kai...this was the first time EVER he has sat on Santas lap.
