Catching Up!

I can't believe that I am so far behind - or that Nonni hasn't been stalking me for updates!!! Here are some quick photos from Christmas that I haven't posted yet. These are all from our visit to see my side of the family a week or so before the actual holiday!
Seeing "The Great" - my dad's mom with the girls (Abby, Aly and Grace)We found the "real" Santa at his house!
All tuckered out after finding "the real Santa and his house." See below for the full story!The girls shakin' it to the music (in their heads)
The cousins (Shawn David, Abby, Aly and Grace)My little brown baby:
We took the girls to the Boardwalk and hopped on the trolly while we were there. While we were riding, Santa Clause jumped on! The girls were so excited to see him. He invited them to come to his house. We got of the trolly, and, sure enough, we were at Santa's house. While he was getting ready to received visitors, the girls got to explore his house. They found his big bed, a large stuffed Santa Bear and more. They decided then and there that this was the "real" Santa - and his house.
Grace asked for a real horse. "Not a pretend one, Santa. A real one."

Before finding Santa, the kids dictated letters to him for us. Grace's letter read:

"Dear Santa, I want catsup for Christmas. I want long-sleeved dresses. I want Santa for Christmas! I want a Barbie for Christmas. May I have a Barbie? Hurry up. I want to have a jeep at my home. Dear Snowman, we all have Santa Clause. Love, Grace"
