Santa Drives a Big Red Tractor!

Our ward party was last night, and they go all out! (The beauty of living in AZ is that you can have a Christmas party on December 19th, OUTSIDE!!! It was gorgeous! After the sun went down, a light jacket was needed.)

Santa Claus showed up driving a big red tractor into. It was a hit. While I waited in line for Kade to see Santa, Rob took Kade over to sit on the tractor. He now thinks that Santa is coming on Christmas, riding a tractor. :)

His new thing, when he's nervous or shy, is to put his hands into his mouth.
Santa was so cute, and the beard was real!!!

The other big hits of the party:

-Delicious roast and mashed potatoes
-Dutch oven cobbler, peach or pineapple (Rob's fave)
-Live nativity, w/ a sheep (Kade loved the sheep)
-Making a snowman glitter ornament

That sounds like quite the ward party! Wow! I'm jealous! I miss you so much! And Kade looks adorable!! My kids put their fingers in their mouth too when they're nervous... or grab their crotch which has ruined many a picture with Santa!! Oh boys!

I think we may need to move to Arizona! A party outside in December sounds perfect!
