Visit with Santa

Getting ready for Christmas

I thought this one was so funny - they both have the same expression on their faces!

Max loves to "drink coffee". He pretends that his closed play dough container is a travel mug & we have to pretent to fill it with coffee. Here is a picture of him imitating Chris, sitting with his coffee, reading the paper.
