It was his first time writing and sending a letter to Santa! We finally had him do it today. I helped Brody write the letter (he held the pen, I wrote what he told me to) and Tony helped him with the envelope. Every year Brody and Hyrum
get letters FROM Santa (neither Tony nor I write them
honestly- and they
are addressed from the north pole so... our kids are pretty
in with the big guy, I guess;) But anyway... Brody finally replied asking for what he wanted- and making sure Santa knew what he
didn't need, too. "I already have a bike", he says. Ha! We had Brody drop it off at Macy's since for every letter they receive they donate a dollar to the Make a Wish foundation. It was a win-win. Heck, a
triple win seeing is I got to peruse through Macy's the week of Christmas. Oh the hustle and bustle. The decorations! The Christmas music! Macy's is magical, no?
*riding escalators for fun.
We had Brody carry the letter in his new
Jordan kids backpack. c/o
Haddad Brands. Shirt is also c/o
Haddad Brands. So long buzz lightyear backpack! (Well maybe we'll keep it too, so I can keep my baby little for a little while longer;)
Brody had to make a pit stop before the big delivery...
All the scribbles you see through the envelope are pictures of presents Brody drew for Santa. B thought he might need a visual. (:
Brody was SO excited he mailed his letter!
Earlier, on the way there... Hy was sporting his new
Nike Beanie c/o
Haddad Brands. Even comes with matching fleece gloves. I especially love that it stays ON and covers his ears. My kids are going to be warm this winter!
Wee! Now Santa knows where to find us! :p

That is so sweet! I really can't wait until I can do things like that with my daughter, she's only 15 months so it's a little too early for us lol. Oh and I love Macy's during the holidays!! :)
Love, Jazmyn♥

Oh I just love this! I bet he was so excited. My daughter is now too old for those sorts of things but my son is almost at the age to enjoy them. I can't wait!
