Just want a candy cane!


Last week we went to UWS (University WI- Superior) for Winterfest. It is a great event for the community and students. Students from the education department had crafts and cookies and ornaments for kids to decorate. Choirs from area schools performed. There were rides on a horse drawn carriage with s'mores over a bonfire to warm up after the ride. And, of course, there was Santa! We were hopeful that Hadley would be brave enough to sit on Santa's lap herself this year....but as you can see from the picture, Theo was the only brave one! :)
PS Many of you probably know we try to limit Hadley's sugar intake...well, there were elves a plenty at this event and they all gave Hadley candy canes. By the end of the night she was in rare form- screaming and hysterical about wanting another candy cane. That was fun for Mom and Dad.:) A couple days later, I said to Hadley, "What do you want for Christmas?" Her response was simple and very funny. She simply said, "candy cane."
