Santa Claus CAME to Town!

Our little city of Torrance has the cutest Christmas tradition. Every year, the fire and police departments decorate and staff a float that has Santa on it. Every night (for a couple of weeks) the float visits different neighborhoods in the city. The past couple of years Emily has been asleep when the float has come to our neighboorhood. We missed it again in our neighborhood again this year, so Sunday night we went and found Santa. It was so cute (it's hard to tell from the picture.) A truck comes down the street announcing that Santa is coming and everyone comes out of their houses. The float does stop for a few minutes and all the kids get a chance to sit on Santa's lap. Emily was so brave. She just marched herself right up there and sat on his lap. I think she was pretty motivated by the candy cane he had for her but either way she was in heaven.

Even Lauren got a chance on Santa's lap this time.

That is really cool that the fire department does that. I can't wait until Dallin is Emily's age and he knows what is going on at Christmas.
Your girls are so cute!!
