It's so nice to have the chance to meet together as an extended family and remember the true meaning of Christmas. The number of wise men and shepherds in the family nativity *may* be a little inaccurate from the real thing, but our kids really look forward to this every year.
And of course it wouldn't be Christmas without a visit from Jolly Old St. Nick himself!! Santa, once again, graced us with his presence at the Palmer family Christmas get-together. The kids are absolutely enamored by his magic tricks. Brooklyn, Blake and Gavin all got to be Santa's lovely assistants.
Blake wasn't thrilled when he found out he'd be playing Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer. LOL! 
The kiddies all sat on Santa's lap and told them what they wanted for Christmas. Brooklyn even brought a written out letter!!!
I'm so glad that the kids have the opportunity to take part in these traditions with Matt's side of the family! We've had the first inklings of doubt from Brooklyn whether or not Santa Claus is real. But we've reassured her that as long as you believe, you'll still receive! ;)

I love that Preston was a sheep! Too cute! And all of the different clothing options for the wise men and shepherd's were really neat! And the girls looked adorable as Angels. And how did you get Santa to come to the festivities? That was cool! Blake's picture as Rudolph was funny. Hope your family has a great year for 2011!
