Anyway, during the fayre, there were about 60 different vendors selling their wares. We bought some wooden toys for the kids, a pork pie for Ethan, and some Wensleydale Cheese (with Wallace & Grommit's picture on it!)Father Christmas was there as well. Tim was very excited to go see him, and Maddie was completely terrified. So Tim went by himself (which was fine, because it cost me 2pounds, 50p to see Santa!).
Father Christmas gave him an early present -- a small tray of Cadbury chocolate bars-- which Tim kindly shared with his sister. What a good boy!The children also got their faces painted while we were there. Maddie was a butterfly,
and Tim got his face painted as a Christmas Eve night scene. 
Can you see Santa and his sleigh flying over the city?? Isn't that so cool??!!

Looks like you all are getting into the Christmas spirit already...how fun! Nice face painting! :o)
Natalia absolutely LOVES when there is Christmas music playing anywhere we go...the mall, grocery store, in the car.
2 pounds 50 pence! Well I guess the economy has had it's impact on Santa as well!

how fun! love the pix...i also LOVED your birth announcement! thanks for sending it.
Collin is the cutest :) Your other ones are too :) How fortunate you are!
You guys would enjoy the books called Pillars of the Earth and World without End...both by Ken Follett. It's all about the times when those cathedrals were being built, and the rapid changes in power--like the Guy Fawkes times.
The Stryker outpost here is extremely thankful out here for so much, and to celebrate Thanksgiving, the Walawenders are joining us. Uncle Roy Stryker's family...and Adam of course!
Miss you and love you! xoxoxoxo
