Yes Sophie, There Is a Santa Claus

If you are ever lucky enough to get invited to Jana Bommersbach’s Christmas party, go.

Every year, Jana — legendary in Phoenix journalism circles, and beyond — hosts a holiday shindig, complete with the best Santa in town. This year I was at Snow Queen with Annabelle, so Ray took Sophie.

It was a good move.

Afterward, she reported that she did NOT kiss Santa on the lips, and later told her sitter Courtney what she told Santa’s elf (pictured above, right, I believe his name is Snappy): “I have your movie!”
