Hyrum's Holiday at Hardware

There are quite a few things we like about living in Hyrum, and the City's annual event at Hardware Ranch is one of them. Free sleigh rides among the elk, free cookies and hot cocoa, and free photos with the big man in red. This was Gavin's second time seeing Santa this week. We waited in a long line to see him in at the Festival of Lights in Ogden on Thursday evening, only to watch Gavin writhe out of his dad's arms like a crazed weasel and run screaming from Santa's general vicinity. Today we prepared him well in advance. He knew exactly what he wanted to say to Santa, he watched as numerous other children came and went from Santa's lap, and when his turn came along he turned back into a crazed weasel. Santa's helpers were prepared for such a response and suggested that we just stand behind the Clauses for our photo-op.

Good looking group but Brandon looks like the crazed one in the second picture!
