Christmas party…with SANTA!!

My motto is, if you're going to go to the trouble of throwing a party, throw an awesome party! That's just what we did this year. I hired the real Santa to come to our party with the Barnhisels. He brought an over grown elf with him to help hand out gifts. He was seriously so cute, and just walked right in. They kids were dying!

He gave each child a vintage sleigh bell from his barn. He told them that these bells had been used for years, and they have the most magical jingle. He also gave them a candy cane and a certificate that they were officially on the nice list. This was so much fun for everyone, adults included.

Everyone was instructed to wear their best Christmas sweater, so that's why we all look so darn festive!

We gave Santa a basket of sugar cookies and carrots for his reindeer.  Seriously, doesn't he look perfect? I have never seen a better Santa!

I get extra points for making my Christmas sweater! Randy wore a sweater that a lady knitted for him on his mission. What? He has the strangest life.

It was a pretty awesome party indeed. The kids played with their new toys they got from the gift exchange the whole time. Everyone got something they liked, and everyone went home happy! Yay for Christmas time!
