St. Nicholas

He came! (Good thing those candies are well-wrapped or I don't know if I'd eat those out of Andrew's shoes.)
My parents have been such a great inspiration for celebrating the feast of St. Nicholas. This year they even sent each of the kids a special ornament with him on it. We read a new book about him, watched the movie about him we got last year, & enjoyed the new statue (from Mom as well) of Santa holding the baby Jesus from his Nativity set.
They were so giddy with excitement, it was hilarious to watch how intensely they had to focus to open the ribbon on these gifts!
They also started to make decorations for their tree. Notice how even they have to have everything 2 1/2 feet off the floor! Doesn't leave much!
Here's the reason. ;) This is the first hat she has both willingly put on & left on for more than 10 seconds. Hope that you had a happy feast day!
