Church Christmas Party/ St. Nick’s Day








Our church Christmas party was held on St. Nick’s day this year, which was pretty cool and made for an extra special Saturday. St. Nick didn’t forget us this year – Mike and I both got Hallmark ornaments as tradition holds and the boys each got Advent Calendars and Collin got a manger book too.

Our church party is lots of fun…Santa sings, plays guitar and tells stories! Many of you may not know that Santa is such an accomplished musician, but his singing is very good and Collin and Carson both enjoyed it. How cute is Carson looking at Santa in amazement, trying to figure how what he was.
It was a pretty cold day/evening, but Santa was also scheduled to be at East Cobb Park that evening for the Christmas tree lighting. It was nothing for Santa as he is used to much colder at the North Pole, but cold for us in the south. Regardless, I chose to take the boys to the park with some neighborhood friends (Kim & Colleen and kiddos) while Mike attended his Rotary Club Christmas party. Mike enjoyed a gourmet catered meal and black tie event while I ate some of a cold hot dog in jeans and a sweatshirt. I was happy to be with the boys and friends and figured we had quite a few babysitter nights in December for various holiday parties, where we had to go late so I could put Carson to bed myself. Next year I should probably attend his fancy party, but I got a pass with the baby this year
