Santa, A Rite of Passage, DONE!!!


We went to see Santa last week....don't let Brady's smile deceive you - he was terrified, but at the last second I yelled, "I'll give you gum if you smile!" It lasted only a second, but he did it! Zach had just woken up from a nap, so he had sleepy face! But he loved Santa, cuddled into him and relaxed. Check out Brady's FUTURE MISSIONARY badge, he loves it, so funny! He wants to be just like Uncle Newel!

That Santa looks like the Santa in Miracle on 34th Street (the new version).

My girls wouldn't even sit on Santas lap. I would have totally thought Brady was thrilled until you said you offered him gum to smile what a mother wont do!

How cute! Zach does look out of it. Nathan was good this year for Santa, after he freaked out last year! Hope you have a Merry Christmas!

So cute! Gracie is still quite unsure of Santa - when I took them to see him at Walmart he didn't even have padding and was pretty skinny - so I finally convince Gracie to get on has lap after I walked up there with her and then she said "Hey, you're not Santa". So she still needs coaxing at almost 5 years old and don't even get me started on Halloween with her =)
