SANTA!!!

Today we went to the mall and visited with Santa. The Picture People were having a promotion where you could get a free picture with Santa, so Venessa signed us up and we brought all the kids there. We have been reading ALOT of Christmas books and books about Santa (I know you're shocked!) and Mia has been pretty excited about Christmas coming. I told her we were going to see Santa today and that she would need to tell him what she wanted for Christmas. After a short decision it was decided that books are what she would ask Santa for (shocking again, I know!).

Even though she seemed excited about Santa I wasn't sure how she would be when she actually saw him. I didn't need to worry though because she was THRILLED! Just so happy and excited. She had the biggest smile on her face and was just running around in happiness. When it was time to take our picture with him, she did a great job sitting on his lap and smiling. When we prompted her she was able to tell Santa she wanted books. Cole on the other hand was making faces like he was being blinded by the flash and lights. I wasn't sure if we would get a good one with both of them, but I was happy with what we got. Now the customer service at Picture People....well, that's another story. It made me appreciate taking pictures at my own house and getting them printed on my own time. :)

Sorry for the awful quality of this picture-it is scanned and my scanner is not great!
