Santa Claus came to town!!!!

On a hot Friday in July, just 5 months before the actual Christmas- Santa arrived in Dowtown Monticello to greet the kids, hear what they wanted for Christmas, and be sure they were being nice children.

We had a blast. Here are Alaric and his girlfriend, Alyssa!

Alaric has a long conversation with Santa about what he wants...an umbrella, a fire extinguisher, etc.

Then we played ELF BOWLING! You got three tries to get as many balls down as you could- really far away! Alaric knocked down 8 pins!!!

Our neighbors came too along with other friends and we had so much fun seeing Santa, bowling, and eating lots of DQ and hanging out on the square.

Silvia, Stella, and their daddy, Matt try bowling.Even Cara and I told Santa what we want!
