Our first fun was in line to see Santa. Luckily, this isn't our first rodeo and we got in line first thing and were right close to the front. It still warranted getting down on the floor and playing games with the kids to pass a few minutes of time.
Anyway, true to form, we had a great time and even did relatively well seeing Santa (Tyler decided to melt down right as we got up to see him, that had it's adventurous and unsettling moments - however we all recovered nicely and life proceded on as normal-whatever normal is).
The kids were really fun with Santa, made some crafts, wrote Santa letters, were very engaged in the singing and performing, played some fun games, and even got a doughnut and some juice.
Lucky for us we were able to see Cosmo on our way out of the party - I can't tell you the utter relief I felt! :)

It was a fun day - and we all lived through it! Even Emma and Grayce did well
- I didn't say they enjoyed every minute, just that they did well!

I remember going to that party one year when Richard was working as an accountant for the independent study department there. It was fun, although our kids were younger than yours and so I am sure didn't get as much out of it as yours did.
P.S. I have never had a Christmas where everyone was happy to sit on Santa's lap. There is always one who is scared of him.
How fun is that, we missed our ward party this year, and therefore have not had the chance to sit on Santa's lap which is always memorable! Happy Birthday to Abby too!
