MTACS-38 Christmas Party

I will admit I was not looking forward to attending Robert's office Christmas party. I had my reasons and among them was it was for the families: however it was in the middle of a school day. During which most of our family is in fact attending school! However, it turned out to be on a minimum (read: half) day. So with being 'fashionable' late, Audrey could attend with PJ and I, however Jazmin would not be able to, as her minimum day goes 2.5 hours longer than Audrey's. So we went. I took Apple Dumplings. I was pleasantly surprised by the good time had by all!

There were crafts, decorating a stocking, caramel apples, sumo wrestling, bounce house, and a play ground.

PJ was buried in the sand by Audrey. You can't tell by this photo but she actually thought it was funny.

Audrey made sand angels.

A lot of sliding. Boy do we love a good slide!

Inside, Audrey was making a caramel apple, PJ was eating an apple.

Dancing, reluctantly- but dancing, with Santa.

Santa and Mrs. Claus were great singers.

A bit embarrassed to be sitting on Santa lap, with the whole 'office' watching.

I consider this a success. She was interesting in him. In them both. She will now know what to expect when we have her annual picture with Santa taken, in a week or so.

And to end the afternoon, the office had a present for each child... even those that didn't attend. I was told to bring one home for Jazmin, along with the caramel apple that Audrey made specifically for her. Maybe Jazmin can re-gift the present to PJ, as none of the presents were age appropriate for anyone above 3 or 4.

She pulled it right out of her stocking!

And this is exactly why, Audrey asked for puppets this year on her Christmas list... to entertain PJ.
