HO HO HO Merry Christmas!

How cute is this?! The fire departments do parades around all the neighborhoods throughout the month. They have all the fire trucks and paramedics with their lights flashing and they go through the neighborhoods anouncing Santa on the bull horns and asking people to bring out any canned food or toys they want to donate. Anyway the parade route drove down our street and the girls were SO excited that Santa was going to drive by! They each had a bag of canned food and they even got dressed up for the event. They stood outside and waved and gave their food to the collectors and got candy canes. It was seriously SO cute and Lilly was SO excited. She couldn't stop talking about Santa ALL night. She kept saying, "Santa is coming" which sounded more like, "Sanna lethle cahmeen." She loved it. Santa was yelling HO HO HO MERRY CHRISTMAS. So HO HO HO is another one of her favorite things to say tonight as well. I apologize for the pictures. I have a really bad camera and it is tough getting a decent picture especially at night.

That's so cute! My kids would probably fall over dead if they saw Santa in our neighborhood- then I'm sure Carly would wonder where her baby is that she's asking him for!

What a cool neighborhood you live in. The only guy that drives around Iron Mountain Ranch is the security guard in his little white car with yellow lights on top---I don't think it compares to your Santa in a fire truck---so fun!!
