Christmas eve

A friend of ours from band, Bill-the-tuba-player, and his wife dropped by on Christmas eve to surprise the kids. They don't have any little ones anymore and enjoyed treating the kids to a visit from "Santa".

 Bill found a huge stocking with six pockets and they added the kids names to it in glitter. It was great since we didn't have a place to put our stockings up this year with all of the renovations (notice the boxes and plywood in the background)!

 They also brought a Santa cake made from a mold that Bill had as a child. Doesn't Bill make a great Santa?

We don't celebrate Santa and the kids don't get gifts from Santa, so this was a lot of fun!
