Santa Party

Jeremy's work, Allyis, had it's annual "Santa Party" for all the kids on December 13th. I'm a little behind, but I thought I'd blog this anyways...This year they had the party at a children's museum, which they rented out. They had LOTS to do, including pictures with Santa, Build A Bear Workshop came, crafts, treats, and the whole museum to ourselves! It was a blast! The first thing we did was visit Santa. Of course Samantha had to put up a fight, not wanting to sit on his lap. We got one complimentary 5 by 7 photo, so I REALLY wanted the kids to sit on his lap and get a good picture, but it wasn't so easy. Parker sat on his lap wonderfully, but Sam refused. But then, right after we got the picture taken of Parker and Santa , Samantha decided she wanted a try at it. By then I was annoyed at the fact that she wouldn't do it the first time, so we told her it was too late. There was a long line and we were done, at least in my eyes. Well, when we told her it was too late, she freaked out and threw one of the biggest tantrums she's probably ever thrown! We were so embarrassed! Well, Jer took her straight to the car and she had a LONG timeout. When she got a grip of herself they came back in, but because of her horrible fit, we decided that definitely she shouldn't be able to sit on his lap. Mean? Probably, but her behavior was terrible! As you can see in pictures though, Santa befriended her while he was walking around and I got a quick snapshot of them together in his chair. By then they were done with pictures, so they let me take one with mine. I justified her being able to hang out with Santa by telling Jeremy that it was Santa, not me, who did it!!! So, that's the story behind the Santa picture. Parker got a really cute one with him too, but I'm too lazy to scan it and my camera keeps being fuzzy when I take a picture of the picture. Make sense??? Well, other than the major fit, the party was really fun! The kids built a moose thanks to Build A Bear who came. Each kid got one moose and an outfit. It was great :) The museum was a fabulous one, with a ton to do. It was really nice. Everyone had so much fun. Thanks, Allyis! We love this company!

  1. Santa, a moose in a dress, and a big ol' tantrum.... sounds like Christmas to me. It doesn't get any better than that, that's the stuff memories are made of.

  2. That sounds like so much fun! Except the little melt down. . . What a great company to have a family Christmas party.
