Santa's Cause

I've only seen what I consider an 'authentic' Santa Claus twice in my life. The second sighting came on Saturday night. Wow. Much props to my grandpa and grandma for arranging this Santa Claus to make an appearance at our family party. He was above and beyond the best Santa I've ever seen. He had an Irish accent, he sang to the kids, sang to the parents, recited Christmas poems, and told jokes all the while casting a sort of spell over us with his soft Irish voice. He looked and sounded like the real thing. The kids were in awe of him--he looked so authentic.

Al asked for a Wii.
Wii're sorry, Ally. Maybe next year!

Here's The Chief asking for 52,000 boxes of legos. Literally.

Lil' R wouldn't uncover her eyes.

O, such a good boy. Didn't ask for a thing.

By the way, look at the size of this TREE!!
