It all began on the day Santa and Mrs. Claus came to town.  I didn’t know it then, but this was going to be the one Christmas I’d never forget.

Hi...my name is Cate and that's me next to my eight year old brother Connor. He's in third grade. Sitting next to the fire hydarant is our dog Chloe. 

This year Connor wants 102 toys for Christmas. Topping the list was Rodney the RoboTron and his Galactic PlayStation..

The minute we saw Santa and Mrs. Claus, Connor went out of control. "SANTA I WANT RODNEY THE ROBOTRON FOR CHRISTMAS." 

I thought that stunt was going to stop the parade.

Rodney the RoboTron was all Connor wanted to talk about.  

In case you haven't heard, the news.  The story is Rodney the RoboTron saved the planet from Intergalactic Bad Guys who came to Earth to steal our chocolate.  

In this year's parade they gave Rodney his own balloon.

By Thanksgiving all the stores in town were decorated for Christmas.

There was a mechanical Santa on the roof of McCormack’s Pharmacy waiving and shouting “Ho…Ho…Ho…”  I think it scares Chloe.  

It scared me when I was a kid.
