Prelude to Christmas -- Part 3

Santa's Lap:

What would Christmas be without a visit to Santa?  Gunnison had a light parade (not that impressive, but a traditional small town event none-the-less) and afterward hot chocolate and Santa at the town park.

 Joshua is a pro at this now.  He had his list all ready and rattled it off without missing a beat.  The best part is he knows the...secret...about Santa, but still loves to buy into the magic of it all.

 Andrew panicked just before his turn because he realized he had no idea what to ask for, and that has never happened in his 5 long years.  He settled on asking for a surprise, and is going on faith that Santa will bring him something totally awesome.  I am trying to decide if that makes things easier and harder. ;)

Caitlin absolutely panicked.  Santa is saying, "Take the picture, take the picture, hurry!"  I guess he didn't see the fabulous humor in it that we did.  Doesn't every kid need a picture of them screaming on Santa's lap?!
