An attempt to visit Santa.....

So we went to visit Santa today and Mac was excited, but nervous. After all, he had been pumped up by us for awhile now! We felt sure Lily Kate wouldn't go for it, and we were right! Mac and Daddy rehearsed on the way about what he would ask Santa for and then explained that he would have to wait his turn. Once that turn came he went right to Santa and Lily Kate's grip on Daddy tightened. It was one of those grips that if Daddy let her go she would still be hanging on. Mac hopped up in his lap, but refused to look Santa in the eye, it was so funny!! He managed to mumble his requests out while Lily Kate screamed for us and that was it!! It happened so fast, but we did get a picture. We started to leave, but then Mac got really upset. "But, I want a big truck!!!" he said. Apparently, Mac thought that all he had to do was tell Santa what he wanted and Santa would deliver right on the spot. Not so we explained. We'll see if he understands in the days to come!! It was a fun trip and I feel certain it won't be the only encounter with Santa that we have this season!

Too cute!!! Our Christmas card picture last year was of Grayson screaming while on Santa's lap--it cracked me up so much that I just had to use it! :)
