Who's got a beard that's long and white

Santa's got a beard that's long and white! And the boys got to see him and tell him all about their Christmas wish list last weekend. In years past, Santa hasn't had a problem with our two young lads sitting atop his knee while discussing the whole Christmas season. This year, however, the boys have gotten too big to both sit on his lap so Santa asked them to sit on the bench next to him. Ugh, who said they could grow up?! Reed was a little perturbed they none of the other kids in line brought their elves and I think he was a little embarrassed.  As we quickly approached the front of the line, his whinings weren't so audible and he was focused on the big man in red. 

After the Santa visit, we went downtown Woodstock for their annual Xmas parade. It did not disappoint!  Not many pictures were taken but the boys ends up with 2 more big bags of candy..,great. Just what the need, huh?
