Visit with Santa

Every year, one of the local mall's holds a private party for members of the media.  The first year it was a small party but it has grown every year. This year was the best by far. Our favorite part of the visit is Santa Claus. For weeks Abby has been telling that us that she shouldn't wouldn't cry when she saw Santa.  Her only request was that she sits next to Santa and Noah sit on his lap.

Waiting in line...

 She didn't cry but she was so shy she couldn't tell Santa what she wanted. Somehow Santa knew it was Abby's birthday that day so she was pretty psyched. One of the best parts of this event is we get free photos with Santa and can take pictures with our own camera.

 Neither kid cried, which is a success in our books.  Noah wasn't scared, but more intrigued as to who this crazy looking man was.

 Abby's reward, a sugar cookie, there was also balloon artists, cartoonists, and food, food and more food!

 Noah's reward.
