Christmas came early to Ocean Shores this past weekend, and Santa made his appearance on Friday at Oyhut Bay, followed by a long line of children waiting for the jolly old elf on Saturday at the Ocean Shores Convention Center for the annual Kiwanis Kids Christmas.

The North Coast News was out at both events, and captured some of the festivities in photographs by Angelo Bruscas and Scott Johnston.
