Every year, Santa Clause makes his way through some friends’ neighborhood riding a fire truck. Last year, we joined Robert, Julie, and Luke and experienced it for the firt time. It was a HUGE hit with Makgill, and we promised him that we would do it again this year if Santa came back. Well, he came back last night, and many families from our Small Group met at Ben, Wendy, Aiden, and Elliot’s house to meet him. Mak loved it again this year, although his sister wasn’t so sure about it. We haven’t taken the kids to sit on Santa’s lap yet, but I’m not sure Miss CB will do so well. We’ll see.<\/p>\n

Anyway, back to Santa…Anxiously awaiting his arrival!<\/p>\n

COMPLETE CHAOS! The only way to describe the mob that our group became when Santa pulled up. It’s funny to see the different reactions from all of the kids…<\/p>\n
