Christmas Preparations

 While Alma was feeling chipper this week, early Saturday morning we were waken up by her claim that she had "spit up" which was putting it lightly.  So she has spent the weekend sitting on the couch and catching up with cartoons.  Crazy amounts of cartoons. 
 For a kid who usually turns off the television after a half hour because she is bored of it, we knew that she was really under the weather when she sat there all day Saturday and all day Sunday.  Poor kiddo.
 We kept putting off our Santa visit but James and I finally got to see him on Sunday afternoon.  James was very curious about the kind stranger.  This Santa stays at the Christkindle Market in Bethlehem and is the nicest guy around.   Since no other kids were around, he held James for nearly five minutes, chatting with him very pleasantly.  "I'm so happy to see you.  You've been such a good boy. ...."  So sweet.
 Then James and I went to a holiday party where he took ornaments off their tree and walked around the house charming strangers.
