Santa Party 2012!!!!!!!

Get ready, this is going to be a LONG post!  

We had my FAVORITE party of the year last week - my SANTA party!  This year we had

25 FAMILIES

and

83 KIDS!!!!!!!!

It was AWESOME!  Here are some of the details followed by pictures of ALL the kids that sat on Santa's lap (about 75 kids actually sat on his lap)!

We had a hot chocolate bar!  Yum! Yum!

I found these super fun SNOWMAN PEEPS at Target!

We had all sorts of fun things to put in the hot chocolate - like Andes mint pieces, white chocolate pieces, butterscotch chips, mini M&Ms, mini candy canes, caramel sauce, chocolate sauce, marshmallows, peppermint marshmallows, flavorings and more!

Here is everyone waiting for Santa to arrive - mingling and eating!

We always have TONS of food - I do a hot chocolate bar and everyone else brings a treat to share!

Brecken was so excited!

The kids were able to color pictures and write Santa a letter!

We had all the kids sit down and sing songs to get Santa to come!

It worked!  Santa heard the kids singing and came!

I think about 75 kids sat on Santa's lap - starting with my sweet little Cameron!  He couldn't get enough of Santa!  I finally had to have Ed take Cameron away so other kids could have a turn.

Here is my Brecken!  He wants THREE very specific things for Christmas.  Good thing I had enough time to let Santa know!

Oh my sweet Kesley!  She was so happy to sit on Santa's lap.

Gavin couldn't wait either!

Matthew doesn't look too happy but he really was!

I even managed to get Dallin to sit on Santa's lap!

Cameron didn't want to smile but I wanted a picture of the twins with Santa!

I had to have a turn too!

Not a great picture but I managed to get our WHOLE family in a picture!

I love this picture - all the girls!  Well, not all the girls but the ones that were still there at the end!

Thanks to everyone that came and made our Santa party a HUGE success!
