Caught Santa Sneaking in our Hotel Suite! See Proof that He Does Exist
My wife & I are in Maui right now spending Christmas here. We had just left our room to go to Mass when I remembered that I forgot my Wallet. Good Thing! As I walked back into our Suite, I caught him sneaking in through the Balcony. WOW! what luck! Camera in hand I took the Photo and raced to hug him. What a thrill. Kids! he’s on his way so make sure you go to bed early and don’t forget to leave him some milk & cookies by the tree.
