Scenes from Christmas California Style

Santa and Mrs. Claus greeted youngsters at Peoples Bank of Moniteau County Saturday following the annual Christmas parade in downtown California. Despite the cold and rain, children of all ages waited in line patiently for the opportunity to sit on Santa's lap and share their Christmas wishes with him. The California High School Sounds of Joy sang Christmas songs as Santa visited with the children.
