Christmas Party Success

When the girls opened the advent on Thursday they were so excited to find out they were going to a Christmas party where Zeb works. He came home early to get the girls and mananged to curl Claire's hair. She loves they way he does it and asks him quite often. It's one of my favorite things ever. He is amazing. 

Thankfully with the forecasted ice storm the party didn't get canceled. The weather wasn't too bad yet so they were able to go. When they got to the party they had this table set up where they each made their own bag of reindeer food. 

Claire noticed a huge pile of presents when they walked In and thought maybe they were for the employees and their spouses. When she saw a kid unwrapping a present she said she didn't want to get her hopes up so she assumed he was opening his parents or something like that. But when they saw Santa she found out who the presents were really for. 

When they climbed up on santa's lap and told him their name he handed them each a gift with their name on it! Julia got a Lala Loopsey Doll.

Audrey got an Art Doll. 

Hallie got a girls nerf gun.

And Claire got a rainbow loom. Since they already have a few of those Hallie and Claire decided to share their presents. Love it when they share things. 

I still can't believe the firm does this for all the kids. It's pretty awesome if you ask me. I'm sure it was magical for the kids. 

The food was amazing. This is just the kids table of food with gobs of candy at the end. I didn't even notice the mountains of candy until Zeb pointed it out to me. Of course the girls had to take some home! 

Here is the dessert table. Seriously yummy.

They had these paint splatter crafts that the girls got to do.

They had face painting. 

Such cute kids! 

A balloon artist was there. 

And more crafts to do. 

Seriously the kids had a blast. Zeb said it was such an awesome party with all the stops. I am so glad they were able to go and have such a great time. When I talked to them once they got home they were so animated and were grinning from ear to ear. 

When they were going to bed we heard that school was canceled Friday due to the ice storm. It's always the coolest thing to have school canceled. I remember it being canceled due to snow when I was a kid and it was always such a thrill when we found out. So fun. 

Well I hope everyone stays warm and safe during the ice storm this weekend.
