Christmas Party and Poway Christmas

 This year's ward Christmas Party was REALLY good this year.  One downside was Kevin was caroling and couldn't make it.  But he busted in the money so it was ok.  This year my dad was Santa.  So naturally we had a talk with Kaylee about Santa's helpers.  After we had them sit on his lap and take pictures I asked her how she liked Santa.  She said very matter of factly, "He was good.  He was Campa (Grandpa)"  And then on if she was talking about the experience she referred to him as the Campa Santa.  "Remember when I got a bag of treats from the Campa Santa?"

 So we did something new this year (Oh and by the way this is Kaylee's posed smile most of the time the month of December) we went to this free even the have in Poway almost everynight of December.  We just went one night.  It gets really crowded.  It was pretty cool though.  This family decorated their house with all sorts of Christmas decorations for people to come see and they also serve free cookies and hot chocolate or cider.  They also had a Santa.  The kids were able to pick out a free toy from Santa.  We didn't actually see that Santa because the line for him was easily over an hour long.  It was a fun event and we will go again next year.

 This is Malcolm "Oooo" face when he thinks something is cool!

 Oh and the family (and a lot of the workers) are mormon!

 We took the above photo for my sister and her husband (The Leons)

 He obviously loved the Seaseme street characters

 This is a horrible picture it was SO dark.  But Repunzel and a random creature was there to visit the kids.

This last one is a random photo of Malcolm with a Santa hat on.  It's just cute!
