A visit with Santa

Santa was visited by Cathi, Shawn, Isaac and Vickie last night at the castle in Christmas Village.  As you can see Isaac did not want to see Santa, even though he and Cathi had talked about it all day.  When he was at the back of the castle he was okay with Santa, at least as much as he could see me.  When he got up close it was a different story.  He did not cry or scream, he just closed his eyes and buried his head in Cathi's shoulder.  No matter how she turned he made sure he could not see Santa.  He knows his Grandpas voice and would look at Santa knowing the voice but not the face. 


It will probably be the last time I can do Santa for him.  Once he saw Santa's candy cane stash he forgot how close he was to Santa. I then made the mistake of rubbing the top of his head and when he turned around and saw Santa, he did not care about the candy.  He closed his eyes and reached for his mom or grandma to rescue him.  It was a lot of fun to have them in the castle as the last group of the night.  We did get a good family picture before it was all over.  As you can see he is not looking at Santa.  Santa wants to wish everybody a very Merry Christmas and also wants to remind you all that Christmas is all about the birth of the Savior and please make sure your children, grandchildren and anyone else you come in contact with remembers:

Jesus is the reason for the season
