A visit by St. Nick

Adan Garcia looks into his goody bag as he and his brother, Manolo, meet with Santa Claus before posing for a photo during a gathering Friday at the Mountain Home Public Library. St. Nick started the evening by reading the holiday classic, 'Twas the Night Before Christmas before pausing to listen to the wish lists of the children that visited the library that evening.

Allen "The Balloon Guy" Hansuska transforms a balloon into a Christmas flower as children participated in the library's Yuletide event.
