Firehouse Xmas Party










The kids visited with Santa at the annual Huntington Fire Co. Christmas Party in early December. Caden and Addie anxiously awaited Santa's arrival on the fire truck. Each year that I wait with them I am brought back to my childhood when I would anxiously wait on my Grandma Laurenda and Grandpa Hubert's couch for Santa's arrival. It was the highlight of my holidays and a tradition that I will always hold dear to my heart even now, years after the last visit from Santa on Christmas Eve. So when I wait with Caden and Addie to hear the sirens of the truck arriving, tears usually fill my eyes as I remember to embrace those moments with my children because they really do go by so fast.
