Our Attempt to visit Santa

This is our 3rd year of visiting Santa and it isn't getting any easier yet. If you received our Christmas card last year you know how it turned out. This year, 2 kids, and yes I dressed them in matching outfits in hopes of an adorable photo with Santa. Our Bass Pro has a great Santa and set up for the Holidays with toys and target ranges, and even Wii Fishing for Tim. All Abby could talk about was the reindeer from last year that were by Santa......

How we prepped: We rehearsed with Abby for a couple of days the list of toys she was going to rail off for Santa, and Megan's list too since Abby knew what she wanted. "Barbie house, Barbie Car, Boy Barbie...." you get the picture. Then we got all dressed up and ready to go. Upon arrival, still excited, having fun, lights everywhere, then she saw Santa......


Megan with Santa, just kind of chilling, didn't mind either way.


Abby forced to sit with Santa, Megan to start crying shortly as Abby is wailing. But don't they look cute all dressed up!

Abby running away from Santa and Megan crying. It was a good time :)
Happy Holidays.

I feel your pain.... everytime we see Santa we try to go talk to him, the first time we just looked, next time we walked up real close and waved, this past weekend she actually stood in front of him and talked to him. So hopefully when we go for the dressed up photo Ashley will feel more comfortable.

Great memories!!

This cracks me up! I'm sure Lane will not be a fan of Santa!
