Visiting Santa

Justin had a day off in December so we took the kids to the mall to see Santa and so we could finish our last few items of shopping. They were so excited to see Santa. We were actually just walking down the mall and Santa came walking up towards us! The kidss' faces lit up. So magical. We decided to go sit on his lap and talk to him even though we had already seen him and talked to him a bit in the aisle.We weren't going to buy the picture because frankly I'd rather spend that $18 on another gift or pay my mortgage! What a rip off! And they don't let you bring your own camera either. Anyway, the photographer said "No photo, Santa" as Santa continued to pull the kids up on his lap. Santa said "we're getting a picture" and proceeded to take one and afterward handed it to us. Saweeeet!!! :) Anyway, we asked if the kids could just talk to him. They said yes. The kids went up to santa and all got on his lap. Once there, the girls were a little nervous, but never cried and they all talked to him. He said he loved talking to these kids because they actually talked and didn't cry! It was true. The 3 kids in front of us all were bawling during their picture. So sad...and hilarious.
Once we got home, the kids played Santa themselves.




I love how squished Kate looks here.

This girl. What a ham.

I don't know what the plug the nose thing was, but she kept doing it, over and over.

Just ignore the extremely messy face...
MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!
