Christmas activities in San Clemente


Our Saturday afternoon/evening was filled with community activities for the children. We attended the Community Center Holiday Hoopla which included real live Penguins and Reindeer! We were all fascinated watching them. They had a tree lighting with Santa and lots of activities including Mrs. Clause bakery and tons of people from the community were there. As you can see in this photo the children shared a stroller and our arms and my legs for chairs. We were looking at the penguins.
Then we walked back to the Casa Romantica for their beautiful Christmas at the Casa party. The children sat on Santa's lap, drank hot chocolate, and were mesmerized by the 'talking' Christmas tree. In this photo they were 'brushing their teeth' with candy Santa gave them. That was Aubrey's idea. We did not remove the plastic covering on the candy, hoping they would hold it and eat it later...NOT... they somehow sucked right through the plastic to get to the candy and were enjoying every minute of it!
All dressed up in their Christmas finest ready to go out to the Christmas parties.
