Jolly Old Saint Nicholas

Sally got to meet the Big Guy twice this week! The first was when we were in Alexandria over Thanksgiving break.

Waiting in line with Daddy. She kept saying Ho Ho Ho!

The Mr. & Mrs.!

Let's try with Mommy...

William's trying to get Sally to smile.  Lucy looked at both Mrs. Clause and Mr. Clause and said Hiiiii.  Sally, well, Sally was sensitive Sally :)

We had another opportunity to meet Santa.  Our church has a "Breakfast with Santa." It was a big production.  They have a room where people donate gifts so that kids can go shopping for their parents and siblings.  They'll even wrap the gifts for them.  Then there was the picture with Santa.  They printed the pictures out for you. You could decorate a frame to put your picture in, and then there was a face painting table.  The Knights also held a pancake breakfast in the gym.  All of this free of charge.  We were very impressed.  Sally was in a great mood.  Running around shouting ho Ho HO! Watching the kids sit on Santa's lap, you know, to warm her up and get a preview of what she was about to do.

Chatting it up with Santa before the big transfer...

Classic! The ladies printing out the pictures were laughing so hard.  They asked if they could keep a copy.

Of course everyone said mommy should try it with her.  Reid is convinced that she's not necessarily afraid of Santa, it's just that we're setting her in some one's lap and walking away.  Who knows, either way they're pretty funny pictures that will make it to her baby book!
