Thanksgiving...and special visitors

On Wednesday before Thanksgiving there were two special visitors that came to Nana's house. Santa & Mrs. Claus. They came to check and see if the kids were behaving and to make sure what they wanted for Christmas. The kids were loving it (Isaak & Emalie had to stand back for quite a while before they warmed up to the idea of sitting on their laps). Emalie as HILARIOUS! She kept saying "not on ho-ho's lap...just on the grandma's lap." And that is what she has been since..."I saw ho-ho and his grandma at Nana & Papaw's house." FUNNY! Thursday we had dinner at Ammie's house this year instead of mom's so the kids could go play and spread out a bit more. It went very well and I think mom enjoyed not having all the clean up and mess at her house. It was a very nice time with family, but too short because we had to go find a house in South Carolina.

Daddie & Lucas waiting on Santa...neither him nor Emalie ever keeps their pants on!

Emalie was not sure at all about these visitors!
Ethan had no problem telling them what he wanted...then he asked some special questions...like how old Santa was...how many elves he had...and other questions that mom & dad just couldn't answer.
Finally all the kids, Emalie on the "grandma's" lap...
The babies didn't mind at all...Lucas & Zowie are getting so big!
The BIG kids still got a chance too!
