Ho Ho Ho

Well, we did our annual Santa visit at the mall with Chelsea and Pearson. We usually go to Nordstroms but when we got there at 3:05 we learned that Santa "feeds his reindeer" every day from 3-4. This would have been nice to know. We were strollerless, so instead of wander the mall with three crazies, we opted for the mall Santa.

Here are the three girls studying Kyla's card to Santa. She really doesn't even know about lists that kids make of things they want for Christmas....she just made him a card like she does everyone else. Inside it read, "I love Santa Claus. Love, Kyla Bell."

Here they are checking out the workshop.Catching a glimpse of the big man himself...not the least bit scared (at this point last year they were already clinging to me).And picture time! All three were a bit unsure but none cried or screamed. None sat on his lap either. Kyla clammed up about the jump rope she was going to ask for. Instead she handed him his card and really didn't say much. Heidi and Pearson opted for the backseat. I love their stone cold faces like they are in the early 1900s. Overall a successful trip to the Man in Red.
