This is the second time this year that they have seen everyone's favorite fat guy. We went to Avalon-A-Glow lastnight and that's when we had these done. We had so much fun...for the most part. My Dad and lil' sis (Kearstin) came with as well. So it was one big shin dig... We had Branden, Alicia, Joshs' Mom and Dad, my Dad and Kearstin, Joshs' Grandma and us.

So enjoy the pics and then read the heartbreaking story of the lost and found from lastnight......

Branden, Santa, and Alicia

Poor Santa! LOL At least Alicia was cheezin' in this one. Branden had this whole *OK, I'll smile but why is she here too* look on his face.

Santa and Alicia

Wow, look at the inexplicable enthusiasm on both of their faces! LOL. I think Alicia was shocked at the amount of people around them, and Santa was just caught off gaurd.

Santa and Branden

Awwww. This one is the best! Both Santa and Branden were smilin so big they looked Asian! You know what Branden asked for? Get this...Happiness! He asked Santa for happiness! What a kid I have.

So here is the Lost and Found story...

We were getting ready to leave so we were on the hunt for the rest of the family. When we finally found then we start to head out to the cars. Well, we pass by this Indian (I think) woman who has this little boy and he looks pretty upset. She tells us that he lost him mommy! So I bent down and start to talk to him. This is kinda how it went...

Hey sweetie. Do you remember what color shirt your mommy was wearing? And he answered me. Ok, great! Now, do you know what your mommy's name is? Thank God he knew!!!! SO then I was all like GREAT! Now we are going to go ask one of the people with the big mics. to call for her... OK?

So we asked one lady and she ran down to the corner and I told Josh the kid’s mom's name, her shirt color, and his name. Then I asked him to go across the street to where they had the story readers (Big stage with TONS of speakers) and tell them to page her. While he was attempting to explain this to the DJ, who apparently had one too many bong hits, this woman grabs him (she overheard him) and says something like *you have my baby*

So, here comes Josh and Emily! She grabbed up her little boy and was so thankful. After the reunion, I walked over to them and told little boy, we'll call him K, *See, I promised you we would find her* and I gave him a big hug and stuff. It was nice.

But of course the Indian lady laid into the mom about how could you let him get away, what happened, why weren't you looking... I wanted to know the same, but come on! What happened is...They were over by Santa and they were standing around talking and as they went to leave, there must have been some confusion because they went one way and little K went the other following someone who he thought was one of his parents.

One good thing came out of this. I had introduced Branden to K while we were hunting down his mom and dad. After all was said and done, we told Branden about how sad K's mom and dad were and how it is very scary to be lost. So as we were walking back to the car, the first time Branden tried to let go of my hand and walk on his own (in this HUGE crowd of people) we stopped, and reminded him of K. He held on tight and stayed really close.

Please. All of you with children, be careful! The holidays are really bad for baby snatching and kids getting lost. Even though you may get lost in a mall and know you will be reunited, it is a very, very bad feeling to not know where your kid is.

What A Day

Well, as some of you know. I am not allowed to pick up Alicia for a while. Because of a problem in my tummy. Anyrate. Josh was off today and instead of telling his dad that he has to help me out with her, he just goes about his BS fixing planks in the attic. So on that rediculous note. I had no choice but to not only pick her up but carry her around for like ever.

Put her down for her nap, get mer up, feed her, wash her down after she ate, and a lot of other stuff that
I AM NOT SUPPOSED TO BE DOING BECAUSE IT COULD KILL ME!

When I brought it to his attention, he got pissed at me for it. WTF. So yeah, and she was in a ronchy mood today to top it all off.

With Love
