December 12th - Santa's Arrival

Every year, there is a Christmas party at my work where Santa arrives in a T-38. I love it and so do the kids. Check out the anticipation as Santa taxis in.

Here comes Santa Claus.

Here comes Santa Claus.

Right down Taxiway E.

He climbs down the ladder and the mechanics help him pull the parachute bags full of presents out of the travel pod.

Santa had gifts for all of the Baccus children including a Ben 10 watch for Jack, which is exactly what he asked Santa for yesterday at the mall. Santa has a good memory.

I was a little worried that Charlie would be too shy, but he went right up to get his present, which was a lego-type set that made an airplane (what else?).

Even Josephine got a gift.

But she was more interested in playing with the paper...

And trying to eat it.
