A Fun Christmas Party At Taco Time!

As many of you know, my dad owns a number of Taco Time's in Utah. His partner, Jim and his family, are very close friends of our family. Every year we have an annual Christmas party with their family and all of our kids. This is something that we look forward to every year. As the years have passed, our families have grown bigger and the venues that we have had our parties at have grown quite small for our large group. Now, we have it at one of my dad's stores. All 50 of us pack into the store and have lots of fun!
The kids love taking orders on the cash registers and serving everyone drinks. They all hope to work there one day. We have a yummy taco dinner, games, a pinata, and best of all Santa comes to visit all of the kids. They all sang Christmas songs and jumped up and down in excitement as they anticipated his arrival. It was fun to see all of their faces light up when they saw him.
Caleb couldn't get enough of the party. He got so much candy and presents that he didn't know what to do. He was a little nervous about seeing Santa in real life but, he soon warmed up to him once he told him what he wanted for Christmas. Izzy just watched and wished that she could run around with all of the "Big Kids."
What a fun tradition! We are so fortunate to have such wonderful friends! We look forward to another fun night at Taco Time next year. This will be a tradition that will go on forever! We love you Dunyon family!
