We took the kiddies to see Santa this weekend and they were excellent. I was a little bit worried because for the past two years, Tyler has freaked out when we got him anywhere near Santa. First we waited online for about an hour before the kids finally got to sit on his lap. Tyler ran right up to him first which was adorable. Then we brought in Cooper and Shea and I think maybe Santa was a little overwhelmed. Both Shea and Coop kind of just turned around and stared up at him in amazement which made for some really cute pictures. Then they both turned and looked right at the camera for some more. Neither one even frowned the whole time while they were on his lap. Tonight we have the Santa from the in town Fire Dept coming and we'll see how everyone is with him. He comes on a firetruck with the horns blaring and lights going so it can be a little scary for the kids. Jenene also took them today to get their Christmas pictures taken so we'll see how that turns out. She can be a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to pictures so hopefully the photographer is really talented. All in all this Christmas has been pretty fun so far because Tyler finally knows who Santa is and is really amazed by him. It is so fun to see his face and the wonder in his eyes. Ah to be young again. I can't wait to see how excited he is in the morning to see all his gifts. The picture here is from when we were waiting on line to see the big guy.
