Candy & Toys



Hazel is soooo excited for Christmas this year! She helped Mommy decorate the house and directed Daddy where to hang the lights. As we drive along she points out everything "Chwistmas" and loves all of the lights. But the coolest thing is that she finally understands Santa!

December 3rd was the Schofield Barracks Christmas Tree lighting. In addition to the humungous tree lighting, Santa rides in on a fire truck and asks all of the kids what they want for Christmas. We braved the rain (yes, we are total wimps and thought it was cold at 70 degrees) and waited in line to sit on Santa's lap.

Mommy was skeptical after last year's Breakfast with Santa when Hazel clawed up to my shoulders to avoid sitting on Santa's lap alone. But, this year, she was literally jumping with joy and shouting "MY SANTA! MY SANTA" when it was her turn. She strode up to Saint Nick all alone and full of confidence.

She hopped up on to his lap and when he asked what she wanted for Christmas, she swiftly replied "candy and toys, please."
