It started with Danny. He bought a beautiful Santa suit and worked Christmas parties and stuff. Made enought $ to pay for thier Christmas gifts that first year. He got burned out after the 2nd year. So, he sold the suit to Jeff. Now Jeff is working "santa gigs" all through the season....paying for thier Christmas for 3 years now. Brother-in-law Bill has now entered the biz. He plays Santa at city tree lightings and local malls. Who would have thought I would have a family of Santas? It just seems twisted somehow...but then again, that's our family....a lot twisted...in a Merry Christmas way......
so Dalaynee knows that Santa's not real, just a guy in a costume that her daddy plays once in a while. The other night she put on the fake "jolly stomach" that Jeff has....went to Jayne and said, Mama, what do you want to Santa? Jayne first said "peace on earth"....Laynee gave her a puzzled look...then Jayne says, shoes, shoes, I would love some shoes. Ok said Santa Laynee Jo...and runs to her mother's closet and delivers her a old pair of hiking boots. So, I guess we don't have to wonder...who will wear the red velvet suit next in the family.

I love your family. I love that pic a few posts back of your mom in the rocking chair with all the kids around and the one with her and Sue and Jayne.
Hey Laur...Thanks for the call tonight. Your mom is a kick. Glad to "see" your family is keeping all the kids happy dressing up as Santa. What fun. Hopefully we'll be able to see you soon. (Tell your mom...it may be more like Wed or Thurs)
How come only the males in the family are out there spreading Holiday Cheer? Your the best Aunt out there, every kid would love telling you there innermost wants and wishes. Merry Christmas
Just don't pull on the beard kid!
