Christmas Party

We went to our agency's Christmas Party yesterday afternoon. It was nice and all the kids enjoyed it. Some great young people in the Navy who work at our local veterans hospital personally bought, wrapped, donated, and delivered gifts for some of the kids. Then they stayed to watch the children open them. A total hit. They seemed to enjoy it as much as the kids. One of them had been in foster care as a child and was later adopted. He was very excited to spearhead the Navy's involvement this year.

The Boss got some Transformers toys and was practically knocking over the furniture in his haste to open it (with the helping hands of two of the staff members little boys). He even sat on Santa's lap to get them something he had vowed repeatedly not to do.

Afterwards, he said "See, Mommy, you don't get me toys. Santa brings me toys!"
