La Habra Moms Club Children’s Christmas Party
We had our La Habra Moms Children’s Christmas party at Oeste Park. We were a bit worried that the weather would be unpredictable, but we lucked out and it was 70 degrees – a beautiful day!!
Valentina’s husband, Morris, was Santa Claus. He made the PERECT Santa. All of us moms brought wrapped presents for our kids. I brought the girls Mickey Mouse back pack purses for their present from Santa. Inside the back pack was playing cards. Each child got to sit on Santa’s lap and receive their present and tell Santa what they wanted for Christmas. We got some great pictures of the kids with Santa!
We also had pizza, I brought rice crispy treats and Angie brought the most delicious 7 layer dip. I also brought candy canes with an attached story about the candy cane. It read:
Many years ago a candy maker
wanted to make a candy that would
symbolize the true meaning of
Christmas-Jesus.
The hard candy was shaped like a “J”
to represent that Jesus
is our rock of all ages.
The candy was made of white
to stand for the pureness of Jesus.
The red stripe represents the blood
that Jesus shed to save us from our sins.
So the next time you see a candy cane
take a minute to remember
the real meaning of Christmas.
