Visit with the Big Man in Red...

For the 4th year in a row, we started at daddy's office visiting with all of his co-workers and then headed over to the mall to see Dear Old Santa and get lunch!

She had talked about it for weeks, tried to be brave, but the tears started once we laid eyes on him. Santa was so good walking over to her, talking to her and giving her candy. Finally she decided she would go with mommy and daddy, yet still was hiding behind us. Soooo this picture is the best we got!

Once she hopped down, she did give him high five, and told him she would like a pink bike (thanks goodness b.c. we have the insider scoop from Santa that she is getting a Princess bike and for the last two weeks she has been asking for a "boy" bike) she also wished Santa a Merry Christmas!

Tim and I talked that when she was 3 months old we had a good picture with Santa and since then it has been a family picture or a screaming child.

Maybe we will have better luck next year!
