When Air Force SSGT Ashley Hubbard found out she was coming home early after an 8-month deployment to Korea, she wanted to find a way to surprise her three boys, Kaylem, 3, Gage, 7 and Ethan, 9. So she put in a call to the big man himself, Santa Claus.
With a little help from the Anchorage Firefighters Union, who she contacted from Korea via Facebook, she made it happen Tuesday afternoon.
With mom hiding in a big red sack, Santa pulled up to Eagle River’s Fire Lake Elementary atop a fire engine adorned with a giant sleigh pulled by eight tiny reindeer.
When Santa asked Ms. Hubbard’s children what they wanted for Christmas, they all said they wanted their mom. He then told them to open the big red sack, and their eyes lit up at the sight of their wish come true.
