Santa Pictures

We had 2 Santa visits this year. The first was at the tree lighting ceremony in Argyle, TX. It was our first super cold night (that's below 35 degrees, for all you Northerners), so everyone (except Coeli) was very bundled up. Notice that Kieran is, in fact, wearing the pumpkin hat mentioned in the Halloween post! As you can see, Kieran was none too happy about having to get anywhere near the Big Man.

Next was the annual party at Addison's heart surgery hospital. We always are so happy to go to this party and have been sure not to miss it, even the year she had her surgery in November 2005. Logan and Addison were very happy to talk to Santa and ask for their one thing (God Bless them!). Logan wanted Heelys and Addison wanted a new Cinderella costume since as she puts it "it is too small and shows her belly" and as Coeli puts it "it was starting to look like one of the inappropriate adult costumes they feature at Party City each year". In any case, thank goodness Santa came through!
At first, we didn't even attempt to get Kiki close to Santa. But then at the end, he was getting ready to go so we did one sneaky picture when she didn't realize he was there, and then one after she saw him.
We hate to torture the poor kid, but those pictures are priceless later, right? Right?? RIGHT???
