Who has a beard of snowy white?

Every year we go to the Forester Christmas party with my parents. I grew up going to these parties and it is so fun to see my children enjoying the same things.

The kids really liked Santa, but Morgan LOVED him.

Last week we went to my nephews house to see Santa. They have a guy in their ward that comes over to surprise the kids. He was great and so funny. The kids were so excited to have him show up. It was a huge surprise.

Santa thought Ivan was naughty.

Carter asking for crafts. What???

Janika was shocked that Santa knew her name. She thinks he is for sure the real Santa!

Santa told me that the best thing about being Santa is that he gets to hug women right in front of the husbands and they don't even get mad at him. He hugged me like forever! It was funny!

I am so thankful that Niki invited us over to share this special visitor. I am also very thankful for a man taking time out of his life to visit children (young and old) for no profit at all. This world needs more Santa's!

My Poor Little Man..

Carter had some dental work done on Tuesday. I brought him home and put him on the couch to sleep. About a hour later, Ivan rushed into my room with Carter. He had blood on his face and his lip, oh my his lip. Turns out he was biting his numb lip for about a hour straight. The photo above was taken right when noticed it. It is way worse now! Yesterday we had him at Primary Children's where 4 different specialists treated him. His lip is very infected. They ended up letting him go home with an oral antibiotic. Still no improvement today and the pain is setting in really bad for him. So please keep him in your prayers! This is seriously breaking my heart.
