A Special Visitor

As we were giving Levi a bath last night we heard a major commotion outside. There were sirens and police lights and a person yelling through a police bullhorn. While we do live around a lot of people we're not used to those kinds of noises so I asked Dave to run downstairs and check it out. 
This is what he saw. Police cars, Fire trucks, lights and people galore.

Then he figured out what was really going on. It wasn't our crazy neighbors across the street again, it was SANTA CLAUS!

So Dave ran back upstairs and told us to hurry. We grabbed our naked boy from his tub, threw on his cutest Christmas pajamas (thanks again Rhonda & Rene!) and ran outside so we wouldn't miss seeing Santa drive by. But then the coolest thing happened... Santa stopped right in the middle of the street and waited to take pictures with all the boys and girls in the neighborhood!  Apparently this is something that the city of Redondo Beach does every year through every neighborhood as a fundraiser for the RB police and fire departments. So they had a professional photographer taking pictures and gave us a card that we could go online and purchase the photos, all for a great cause. So here is Levi's first visit with Santa Claus and we didn't even have to go to the mall!
Happy 1st Christmas Levi!!
 
Thanks Redondo Beach Police & Fire departments for giving us a fun surprise for our Saturday night!
