visiting santa

Ok, ok, i know i owe you a post. What is Christmas without the obligatory traumatization of the 2 year old? Ah yes, the yearly trip to visit the scary white beard guy. This year Penelope was actually into it and had a good conversation with Jolly Ole Saint Nick. My dad's Real Estate Office has a fantastic program where they host Santa right from the North Pole, give out treats, presents for the kids, and a free 5x7 photo with Santa! It is really fun, and my dad loves to show off his grandkids. Who can resist that?



Even Millie braved a "high 5" to hopefully guarantee herself some goods on Christmas night.


A little trip down memory lane... a visit to Los Angeles in January of 2006, almost a year ago now. My good friends from college and also from Azusa Pacific, where I spent 8 years working pre-kids!!
