We had our Christmas party last Saturday and we really enjoyed it. Loved the food, let the decor, loved the whole set up: Santa, dinner, nativity play.
Lainey was the only one willing to actually visit with Santa. Apparently Liz is too old and too cool to to interact with him, but she did swipe a candy cane. And Ellie liked to watch Santa from afar, but was too afraid to approach him.
Alaina
was a bit chatty, but when it came to a gift request she kind of froze
up and Santa had to ask her several times and tell her to speak up.
Turns she wants a teddy bear--I had no idea. 
Midway through dinner Ellie decided that she really did want to see Santa and kept asking us to take her to him. We waited till the line died down and good thing too because even after her multiple requests she panicked when she got close to the guy and wouldn't let go of Drew.
Lizzie and Lainey initially didn't want to participate in the nativity play, but I was one of the dressers so I made them come "backstage" with me. Eventually when Liz saw all her friends in costume and realized that there was only one angel costume left she decided that she wanted to wear it. Of course she when she came out on stage she was in a shepherd costume . . . Once Alaina saw Liz in costume she decided she wanted one as well and once she got on stage she was pretty excited.
