Yep..it's that time of year again..for the kids to write to Santa..the West News prints letters to Santa every year and it is one of my favorites...so here is a sampling of what the kids in West, Tours, Hillsboro,Abbot, Leroy, and Tokio want Santa to bring them..

Dear Santa,
I have really tried hard to be good this year for Mom and Dad. I want a bunch of stuff this year and will be mailing you pictures of everything I would like.Enjoy your homemade cookies and milk, and I left some carrots for Rudolph. Please remember Bubba also, he has been a good brother this year. Love Paige Knapek age 8..West.

Dear Santa,
For Christmas I want 1,000,000 baseball cards, wrestiling DVD's, wrestiling man, wrestiling cards, a 3-inch wide and a foot in length skateboarad like Tony Hawk's. I also want chemicals.Kyle Holecek age 8, West. (I am trying to decide if that is chemicals like in a chemesty set or if he wants...."chemicals.".....in West..you never know.)

Dear Santa,
All I want for Christmas is 4 games the first one is Smackdown vs Raw 2007, Avatar the last Airbender, Cars the video game and Trillville. I also am collecting baseball cards, football cards and wrestling cards. So I would really like to get some baseball cards, football cards and wrestling cards, and if you think I have been good enough (which I have ) I would like some toy wrestling action figures.Love,Jacob Muhl age 9 West.

Dear Santa Claus,
How are you? I was very, very good this year. What kind of cookies do you want me to put out for you? I want you to surprise me. I really, really really like you. You are very genourous and nice. My little sister Johanna, wants to be surprised too. She is six. My little brother, Dominic, is two. I am not sure what he wants. I love you. Love, Danielle Drews, age 8, West.
(she and her sister Johanna and Dominic where just in here and Dominic said he wanted a hammer for Christmas and more books.and especially wanted books on trucks..this kid is a truck loving fool..)

Dear Santa,
Iwould like wrestlers clothes and shoes. I would also like for sick people to get better. That is all I want. Chance Porter.age 8, West.(this is the grandson of a couple that I used to get drunk and party with..nice to see the buzz gene didn't stretch to him.)


Dear Santa,
How is it going? Santa, if you could have anything for Christmas, anything at all that you could open, what would it be? I don't know what I want for Christmas. I want to give something to you. You have done so much for me, I want to give you something.Claire Hutyra, age 8, West.

Dear Santa,
For Christmas I want some walky talkies, a knight kingdom set and a snuggle pillow.(my snuggle pillow's name is Antonio....)
I want this Christmas to be the best Christmas yet. I'll put you out some milk and cookies with icing and sprinkles. I make them with my gran-gran. They're good.
Have a very merry Christmas. Say hi to the elves and Mrs. Claus for me. And I also love when you write notes back to me. I still have the ones you gave me last year.Am I on the good kid side?

West, Texas gathered over 1,500 toys for Toys for Tots..and they will remain here in our town..One hundred and twenty-eight needy children from 46 area families will have a merrier Christmas this year..The exact number was 1,550 toys..In addition to the toy drive, donation jars (for monetary donations) were available at several locations in the city and the money was used to purchase jackets for the West Kiwanis Club's Jackets for the Needy drive. Enough money was donated to purchase 36 jackets. Also, the names of the kids were put into a drawing for some bicycles and were given away this past Tuesday night..
I love my town..


the library will be closed till next Tuesday...so unless I can get to a computer I will not be posting till then... So will take this time to wish you all a very very very Merry fucking Christmas...
I love you all...

fuckme till I hear sleigh bells...

LOVED the letter from Paige who is going to mail Santa pictures of everything she wants. None of that cheap imitation shit for her.

You have a great Christmas and may the Cowboys grant your every wish.

Highly amusing, in a hilarious-yet-innocently-sweet sort of way.

Happy Yule to you at least, and if you're going to be gone for a while, Happy Christmas as well.

Dear Santa,
Please bring Jackiesue Antonio Banderas with a Dr. Pepper in each hand. Don't worry, she'll remove the Dr. Peppers first. She knows what to do with the rest.
Stay jolly and don't let no one put you on a diet.
Babs, age 36

Excellent post! I freaking LOVE reading Santa letters! Next year, my 6th graders are going to write letters to Santa - applying to be helpers!!!! The principal at the elementary school next to my middle school is going to dress up, etc. He'll need some damn help! I can't wait! (A whole fucking year away!)

I know I'm earning a black mark next to my name for this...but...Trinity Faith? Whatever happened to Sadie, Katherine, Julie? Ya know?

Buddha has a kid in his toddler room whose name is Nekoda. I swear. I couldn't make UP something like that.

Be kind to kids. Give 'em a name. A NAME!!!
