Breakfast with Santa

On Saturday December 12th, our family attended Breakfast with Santa at the Emerson campus.  This is an annual event held by Bill's Hermetic Motor division at work.  Nolan and Carter had a lot of fun making crafts, eating donuts, and opening their gifts.  Blake enjoyed being along for the ride and having free range to roam around the cafeteria.

I told Blake smile and say, "Cheese!"  This was the pose he gave me. haha

Nolan and Carter each made a snow globe, ornament, picture frame, and necklace.  Lots of crafts were made.  The boys had a lot of fun going from one station to the next to make different crafts.

As the morning was winding down, it was time for the kids to open their presents.  Each of the boys received the perfect gift; Nolan received a Ninja Turtle Play-Doh set, Carter received an Avengers Play-Doh set, and Blake received a push toy lawn mower!!

The boys didn't want to have anything to do with Santa at the beginning.  Bill and I had to have our pictures taken with Santa and the boys because the boys wouldn't let go of Bill or myself to take a picture.

At the end of the morning, the boys thanked Santa for their gifts and gave him high-fives.  We made progress this year!!

Here are the pictures the photographer took.  Santa is great!  He played on the floor with the boys to try and warm up to them, but only Blake was game.  At least there weren't any tears this year.  Only a few scowls.
