Dear Santa,
We have been a really good boys this year. We are ready for you to come see us. Please come see our Mommy and Daddy too!! We promise to leave you some cookies and milk under our tree. They are delicious. We have lights on our driveway so you will know where to stop and we will leave reindeer food out for your team. We know they get hungry flying around and we bet not many kids leave food for them too. We will tell our dogs Haley & Trixy not to bark and scare them or you!! Caper would like some Jake and the Neverland Pirate toys, especially Jakes “BIG” boat and a bean bag chair and LOTS of toys, Trapper would like some Winnie the Pooh Toys, the Disney Singing Train, and blow-up hut with balls in it. WE LOVE YOU SANTA!! Please don’t forget our house!
Love,
Caper & Trapper Groves
