We've been super busy this last week. We've been trying to finish up our Christmas shopping (Almost got it all done. We've only got a handful of things left now-hopefully I'll get that done on Monday), I got the boxes out to all my grandparents (always a fun experience-me and the three amigos at the busy post office), school parties, etc.
Saturday was the Jeppsen Family Christmas Party (on Matt's dad's side).
We get together for dinner...
I made lots of these...
Matt & J played bejeweled (a lot!!) on Amberlee & George's iphones...

Santa (or one of his helpers) always comes to the Jeppsen parties. He always brings the kids something little (a gift the parents send ahead for him to put in his bag).
The kids were way excited to see him...
Santa for a minute while he gave them their gifts.
Chloe was just fine with Santa...
She got a princess Color Wonder coloring book...
Portie tried to just grab his gift and go...
His was a Toy Story Color Wonder book (no Buzz in it though, what the ???)
...poor boy!! And he has mean parents who just take pictures of him crying instead of saving him from the big hairy guy.
...anyway, Santa brought him a little car; and he liked it. He makes little engine noises when he plays with it.
