5000 Words Worth

A visit with Santa and Mrs.
If a picture is worth 1000 words, here's 5000 words worth . . .

      Right now, I'm remembering the effort of getting eleven kids to look in the same place at the same time. Soon, though, I'll remember the beauty! :)

    Heyyy ... I didn't even know Santa and Mrs Santa had kids, let alone grandkids!! (Although I did notice they were holding hands in that first photo :O))

    That final picture is simply beautiful. What a lot of work, but the result is a treasure.

      Thank you so much, River! We had a time getting everyone to look the same. But it was worth the effort! :)
