Weekend Round Up


Ha ha. Remember when I was going to make the Weekend Round up a regular thing? oh well, i'm bringing it back for today's purposes. Which is a really lame way of saying we picked out our tree at the tree lot (oh it smells so good!) and that Owen got to talk to Santa at our Ward Christmas Party.  Penny cried instantly, of course, but Owas super excited and afterward he said,  "Mom, you don't have to get me the Interactive Wall.e any more! He is!" Then he pointed back over his shoulder to where somebody's boyfriend sat dressed a giant fuzzy santa suit and an ill-fitting wig and beard. He is, really? Well, cross that off my list. 


Just kidding, that guy was a great Santa and I love that Owen still believes. Sophie was way to young when she found out.

Still need to decorate the tree and do gingerbread and a million other traditions and to-do's before Christmas comes in 17 days. Better get on it.

That is such a cute story. It sounds like you have everything undercontrol.

Wouldn't it be so nice if we really could let "santa" take care of it all? Including the expense. Oh well. Great story. Owen is such a cutie.
And I'm jealous you got a real tree. I want one. Post a picture of it when you're done decorating it. Maybe I can smell it through the computer. Mmmmm.....
