Ho-Ho-Ho

On Saturday, we went to John's work party. It was held at a bowling alley and I was so impressed with the organization that went into this event. Each child (probably some where in the neighborhood of 100)received a gift from Santa with their name on the package. The line moved quickly and when the girls got their gifts, they were thrilled. Santa and Mrs. Claus roamed around the bowling alley so we could visit with him at any time. This was terrific...no long mall lines or congested groups of people waiting to talk with Ho-Ho. We just walked right up and chatted with them and then the girls got on their laps for a photo. And...this is big...Shelly was shy, but not crying during this whole event. Fun for everyone.

The girls also had fun bowling. Lily took on the role of instructor and Shelly followed her every move. So fun to watch and especially fun to see them in their bowling shoes!
