Let the Xmas celebrations begin!

As decorations are being sold and going up NPH is getting ready for Xmas. 

The volunteers held a two hour event for the kids. We had Xmas music, books, coloring, cookies, and even Santa!  I was at the cookie station.

Shawn played the role of Santa and I helped him get ready for the big event. We put flour all over his beard and hair, the kids loved it!
