Ella's Karate Christmas Dinner - December 16

James had to work this evening.  The rest of the family went to Ella's karate dojo's Christmas dinner.  It was fun.  They play musical chairs after eating a potluck dinner and then Santa comes to take pictures with all the kids after the kids sing Christmas carols.  I guess my kids are all too old to have their picture taken with Santa.  Ella thought it would be weird to sit on Santa's lap, since she knew that the man who was playing Santa is in her adult karate class she attends.  I compromised and they all posed for a picture by the tree in the lobby instead.
