Santa

PC065484

As you can imagine Adrianna is very excited about Christmas, and though she will tell you that Christmas is when we celebrate Christ’s birth, she is very excited about Santa Claus. Santa was at the store the other day so we got the girls ready to go see him. We kept it a surprise for Adrianna, since she has been asking about him since Halloween we thought she would be so excited to see him. Unfortunately when we saw him Adrianna didn’t want anything to do with him, she isn’t the best with surprises. After a lap around the store she was ready to see Santa and tell him what she wanted. Alicia on the other hand did not want anything to do with Santa, though she did let us get close as long as I was holding her. It wasn’t quite the picture perfect visit we had imagined, but it was much better than waiting hours at the mall or some other contrived experience.

What do you think Adrianna asked Santa for this Christmas? Well, Sarah’s cousin Bobby convinced her some time ago that if she could ask Santa for something she should ask for a pony. A big pony that she could ride. (He owes us for this one!) So, when Adrianna built up the courage to talk to Santa, she asked for a pony; specifically a pony that she could ride. Santa just laughed and smiled! Hopefully she’ll settle for a pony ride from her cousin on Christmas day.
