Christmas Eve

On Christmas Eve, we decided to try and take Miss Lucy to see Santa Claus over at the Grove. Well we weren't the only ones- and when we got there, the line was two hours long, and roped off because after those two hours- Santa had to rush off to the North Pole to start delivering gifts.... We did get to see Santa's workshop, and the tree that is allegedly bigger than the one in Rockefeller Center! Ben also got to embrace fatherhood in the best known way... the baby carrier.

The boys were given some early treats, and Charlie, feeling a little bit stressed over all the baby (ie non-puppy toys), gathered a large portion of his toys in a circle and guarded them for part of the afternoon.
