Visit with Santa

We had our annual neighborhood visit with Santa this weekend. The kids did great! Mack didn't even shed 1 tear. I was so looking forward to a picture of him screaming his head off in Santa's lap, but oh well, maybe next year?!

I think Ellie was a little scared of Santa. I had to remind her to tell Santa what she wanted. Emma, on the other hand, old pro that she is, walked right up and began spouting out her wishes as soon as we got into the room. The girls both asked for American Girl Dolls. We'll see about that. I'm blaming their obsession with these outrageously expensive dolls on some play dates we've had recently!

We had doughnuts and fruit and enjoyed hanging out with some neighbors and their kids. It's definitely an easy Santa visit with no line, no waiting and free food. You can't beat that!  These are a few of the pictures we took yesterday morning.

First attempt at a picture with Santa

Mack is just hanging out, sucking his fingers. Not upset that a man with a big beard is holding him at all. 

Mack finally turns around like "Wait, who is this?" But, it doesn't ruffle his feathers. 

We tried to get a picture of all 3 in front of Santa's tree, but as you see it was not a success. 

Trying to escape

Mack is DONE!

One of our neighbors volunteered to try and get a family shot of all 5 of us. This is the best one he got. Worth looks hilarious in this picture to me! Clearly Worth and I were not as festively dressed as our children.
