The band took over, and Santa Claus made his appearance. He's handing bags of goodies to the line of kids.

After greeting the kids, Santa worked the crowd.

Not sure how, but I forgot my regular camera, so all pictures were taken with the iPhone. I didn't want to be wandering around the gym while the concert was going on, so the pictures aren't the greatest, but you get the jist of what was going on. The music was great, the people had a good time, and Santa delighted the kids AND the adults. Sometimes it seems like the older people get just as big a charge out of seeing Santa as the little ones.

Later Sunday evening, I walked around the village taking more pictures of Christmas decorations, so I will be posting them this week.

Dale & I enjoyed the concert also, Mike! Lots of time must go into practicing & all should be proud of their performance!  Too bad there is no more chorus!
