On December 1st, Jason's work hosted a "Cowboy Christmas Party" for all of their employees and families. Abby and Landon enjoyed playing in the maze made from cardboard boxes...
And playing a few rounds of horseshoes...
Nolan was fascinated by the horseshoes too and had a hard time leaving them alone!
They were also supplied with their own balloon creations...
Of course no work party would be complete wihout a visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus. As you can tell from the pictures, only Abby was excited about this visit. Nolan wanted nothing to do with either one of them while Landon was reluctant to get too close (although he did tell Santa what he would like for Christmas from afar...LEGOs, a Dinosar/Truck and an iPad. Dream big little man, dream big!)
Abby was thrilled to finally be able to tell Santa what she would like for Christmas...a cupcake pop maker, an American Girl Doll and LEGOs. We'll have to see if Santa comes through!
Abby has been asking a lot about whether thing are "real" or not so I thought for sure she would be questioning the notion of Santa and even Jack (our Elf on the Shelf.) But she is still very much a believer in both which makes me happy. I hope she still has a few more years of magic left yet!

Matthew has not been asking at all. He says that kids in his class don't believe but he doesn't know why. I love that he doesn't question yet, especially because Santa came early last year, but even more so, we are doing Santa tonight (a day, or night) early since we are leaving and want the kids to be able to play with their gifts before we pack them up. I hope that doesn't stir up questions. We will see though. We have our answers ready about things if he starts asking.
