Christmas Party

Last weekend we attended Brian's work Christmas (family) party. It was a lovely party and lots of fun had by all, especially a very active Nolan. Even with both of us there, we were tired afterwards, because there was lots of space to chase Nolan around. Santa came to the party bearing gifts for the kiddos and even read them a story. Nolan enjoyed listening to Santa read, but when it came time to sit on the big guys lap, he still wasn't having it. That was the only hiccup in the day! Nolan LOVED his present from Santa, though! It is a top that has 4 animals, 4 number buttons and music! So fun, thanks Santa!
Saturday evening Brian and I really got in the Christmas spirit after Nolan went to bed. Get your mind out of the gutter, we watched "It's a Wonderful Life." Brian gave it to me our first Christmas away from home, as he knows how much I LOVE the movie. I forgot he had never seen it, so it was even more special...I thought he may think it was cheesy, but he really enjoyed it. I hope you had a lovely weekend as well...everyone gearing up for the BIG weekend??

Nolan with the wrapping paper, almost as much fun as a toy (at least when other kids are playing with your toy)! (this is his Christmas outfit from G&G M...so cute!)

No sitting on Santa's lap right? He's figured out the way you snuck sp? it up on him before and now he's prepared. Maybe by next year he will be a little braver.
