Santa's Lap

Saw Santa tonight. Last year the picture was of him and the kids. This year it was all four of us (will post soon) since Ryan was not having it without us. Haley COULD NOT WAIT! For about a month she talked about how she wanted a doll castle. This weekend she saw our friends from San Diego and played with Ellie on skateboards. Tonight, yes she did, she asked Santa for a skateboard. It was very cute to see her interact with him and talk about the holiday. She promised him a cookie and milk under the tree along with a slice of apple for his reindeer. This was her 5th trip seeing the big man!

Ryan was just kind of enamored with the whole thing. It was fun to watch. He was also very interested in the animals that surrounded Santa's...throne? What do you call that thing?

I must say that it is very cool that we have the same Valley Fair Santa in all our pictures. I have found out through talking with him through the years that he lives in the midwest and comes out here every year. I know that last year he and Mrs. Claus were put up in Santana Row. Such a jolly fella! My favorite season is here! It usually brings out the best in people.
