Day 31 - A picture of a tradition you have.
This picture was taken at my house in Peru on Christmas 2010.
My daddy, my sisters Larissa and Toti and a picture of me.

My daddy dresses as Santa Claus.
He's done it for so many years now.
When we were little, we didn't know it was daddy.
We really thought it was Santa.
Dad always said he was going to the bathroom.
And then Santa came, gave us our presents and left.
And Daddy came back.
And we were all like:
"Dad, you missed Santa!"
We eventually realized it was Dad.
But we still pretend it's actually Santa.
Because it's like magic.

I've missed four Christmas at home since I came to BYU.
I miss Christmas with my family.
I don't like spending Christmas alone.
It's sad.
This last Christmas was the best I've had since I came here.
(To read more about that go here)
I'm planning on getting my future husband to dress as Santa every year for our kids.
It meant a lot to me.
And I wish I could see my daddy as Santa even if it's just one more time.
But...
I get to see my parents in April for graduation!
They're coming on the 20th!
I'm so excited!

What a fun tradition! I love it. And I really hope your future husband does this for your family. :)
I'm so happy that your parents are coming so soon! I'm very excited for you. :)
P.S. I commented back to you on my blog, but in case you don't look at that: A cooking blog would be so much fun!! Can we please do this?
