Santa and the Treasures

The kids enjoyed the movie and the festivities at our children's museum. There was a wonderful train exhibit as well as Santa before you watched the movie. Caitlyn had been saying no Santa but when she saw Jacob and Chloe with him she suddenly said, I do it! and ran up and wanted to be included. She was so proud for overcoming her fear, when she was done, she gave me a huge hug and said, I did it! I did it! I like Santa!! I like him! Jacob is intently telling Santa his Nana gets him his presents and that Nana has told him it is a secret until Christmas. I have a few more pics I will share later of the train exhibit.

Beautiful pictures! I wish we had something like that down here, but we're still just a small town.

Again--such perfect pictures. These photos with Santa just melt the heart with their smiles:) And then that big hug at the end. JiaLi sat with Santa only because her brother got on his lap but she was very unsure of him;)

Love the pictures....all 3 treasures together....especially love the last picture.....I'm glad to know there is another "Big Haired Momma" out there like me! lol

Adorable pictures! Your kids seem to really enjoy characters and costumes. My 2 are still horrified by any type of costume unless I am holding them and I am the one closest to the "scary" one. : )

Thanks so much for the prayers for our virus and also for the beautiful Christmas card!!

Oh, and I love the last picture! I also have a hard time getting photos of myself with the kids. For one, I do NOT like to be photographed and no one here ever thinks to take pictures of me as I am always behind the camera. So, to hand the camera to someone else and tell them to take MY pic. just does not feel right for me.

I do force myself to do it from time to time for the kids sake(in the future)...what we will do for our children. : ) This got too long!

I love the photos of the kids with Santa. I am glad she overcame her fear. My favorite photo is of you and Caitlyn together. You need to post more photos of you with your treasures. ;)
Merry Christmas.
