Visit With Santa

I hadn't posted these pics because when I did so on Facebook our early visit with Santa was met with a bit of grumbling and irritation that Santa was out and about before Veterans Day. We went to Holland Gardens for their Christmas Open House, and there he was. So of course we wanted to say hello and sit on his lap. Syd was thrilled and quite comfortable, H-Dub was not so sure. Here are some pictures commemorating the event:

Waiting in line, wondering what in the Sam Hill's going on.


Waiting patiently with an angelic look on her face so that Santa can see just what a good girl she really is.


Still waiting. We waited a terribly long time. There was a family of 4 unruly children in front of us. We enjoyed watching them at first, one of them was a 10 yr old girl who would elbow her mother violently in the ribs when she tried to correct her. Then they started taking pictures, with their cell phones, and took way to long so we didn't enjoy them so much after that.


H-Dub picks his nose when he is nervous. And blinks but you can't tell in this picture.


Egads. Not sure about this Santa person anymore. Syd however seems quite thrilled.

Erin...we also got to meet Santa at the Holland Gardens Open House. Santa was so old and feeble. I thought Annabelle was going to break him. Cute pictures!
