A Visit with Santa

We have seen Santa many times this year. Until today, Wally has only wanted to wave to Santa. We went to lunch with Van, Stacy, Sander, and Levi and then found Santa. First, only Levi thought Santa was ok. Wally and Sander needed each other to talk to Santa.

Some how, Santa knows that little boys like Thomas!

Eventually, Wally got brave and decided that maybe Santa was ok. Santa was in a very good mood today and was very good with the kids.

He even decided that he needed to whisper in Santa's ear that he wants a "flippy car" for Christmas. Wally has been very consistant with this wish...too bad I don't think Santa will be getting him one. Santa found other stuff for Wally already.

Needless to say, Wally is just a little bit excited for Chirstmas. Kids are so much fun!

As I was working on getting a short photo album ready for our dossier, I came across this picture. I had to take a couple minutes to get this posted. In a few weeks, when our dossier is mailed off, I will try to get more posted.

Baby Lord Jesus, Rum Pa Pum Pum!

Wally is very excited about Christmas this year. He has been talking and singing about "Baby Lord Jesus" all the time. In Sunday school they have been singing Away in a Manger. I think that is where Lord Jesus comes from. He has been into making up his own songs for quite a while now, but now this songs are getting a bit more complex, not just 1 or 2 words repeated over and over again. Wally and Joel have also been singing Little Drummer Boy a lot because Uncle Eric gave Wally a book about the little drummer boy for Christmas one year. So, what follows is Wally's rendition of "Baby Lord Jesus, Rum Pa Pum Pum."
