Christmas Party for 'Our Kids'



Finally the day arrives.  The day of the party we all plan for 'our kids', the ones we adopt each year through the local daycare.  The shopping is done, the wrapping is finished, we've sent an invitation to Santa to come and be our guest too.  The presents are under the tree and the ladies have baked cookies and decorated the hall.  A couple of big quilts have been spread near the tree for the little ones and the 'Elves' are ready to help Santa.  Folks gather to watch the happy event.  And here come the kids!

I'm dashing around with my camera hoping to capture all aspects of the day.  The pictures tell the story so I'll let them 'talk' !  Except to say that it was nice to hear Santa tell those little ones the Real Christmas story !

Kids sing songs for us                                                                                           

Hope you enjoyed seeing our party.  We all come away knowing how true the old saying is " It's more blessed to give than to receive".  Merry Christmas Everyone!
