Happy Holidays - Part 2

Up next - a visit from the Jolly Man himself. SANTA! He showed up at my Mother and Father in law's house 10 days early to check in on the Bathje clan, and he brought with him a big bag of presents (did you expect anything less from Santa?) for all the little kiddos.

Alice got in some practice for when the baby comes in May.
Matt's cousin Patrick brought his little girl Samantha over to have her first visit with Santa.
Alice loved it - Sam, not so much.

See - much happier when not being held by a toddler. :)

It's not Christmas at Grandma's w/o a train around the tree.
The kids could have watched it for hours!

Alice was VERY excited to see Santa when he came in the door.
She kept saying "Santa, PRESENTS!!"
Then she realized she had to sit on his lap.
It could have gone worse.

Needless to say she was extremely happy to get off of his lap.

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM THE BATHJE FAMILY!
