Christmas Eve

We went to David's Aunt Linda's house on Christmas Eve. These are some pictures of Allyson's experience with Santa. Last year she was so excited to sit on Santa's lap, and this year I was a little worried that she might be scared of him . . . boy was I wrong, she was quite upset with him actually.

This is Allyson with her hands on her hips staring at Santa and waiting for him to call her name to sit on his lap.


This is the look Allyson gave us when we told her to be patient and that we promise Santa will call her name.


Her name was one of the last ones called out of a very large group of kids. This is her crying after she gave up and probably figured Santa would never call her name.


This is her on Santa's lap. Most of our pictures ended up blurry this night, I think it was an ID-10T error, so sorry. But it was the cutest thing, the second she sat on Santa's lap she just gave him the biggest hug and then we kept asking her to do it again so we could capture a decent picture with the camera (with no luck), she must have hugged him 5 times before we finally gave up.


She was so happy to have her present. Santa got her a Beauty and the Beast puzzle.
