We had been searching for a Santa to meet up with and share our gift list. Finally we ran into this helper: the first Santa we've met who doesn't speak any English. It seems he also didn't get the message about: 1) handing out peppermint candy, 2) asking what the kids want for Christmas, 3) saying HoHoHo. Plus he was wearing makeup ... and not the rosy cheek kind!!
Another interesting thing is that poor Mrs. Claus has been thrown over in our area in favor of some tart in a short skirt named "Santarina" which I think is a bit lacking in the family values department. Mrs. Claus deserved better but probably has an even more golden parachute than Mrs. Tiger Woods since Santa has more secrets to keep.
Hudson and Bethany got to get on stage for some kind of game and Hudson won first prize. The amazing prize was a white dish from the store's recent anniversary. Every kid's dream gift.Speaking of which the kids went to a church Christmas party on Saturday that featured a gift exchange. We knew things were not as we thought when only two gifts said: BOY or GIRL. Our two. Hudson got a flowery, purple CD holder and Bethany took home a hand towel. Good thing we're here, I guess, so we can straighten out the world on the stuff they're supposed to do to celebrate X-Mas ... oops!! I mean CHRISTmas.

How funny! Not ha-ha, but interesting! Was the hand towel at least in a color Hudson liked? They could swap.
