Visit with Santa

We visited Santa a few weeks ago.....I wish I would have had a video camera. Santa visits this photographer's house for picture taking. When we walked up to the house Santa was walking by the front door (taking a little break from his photo shoot). Mia started bawling and wouldn't even go in the house. Santa was so sweet. He stopped and tried to tell her how nice he was. She didn't buy it. I finally convinced her to go inside. Santa came up and told her how much he loved her and she was all smiles after that. He picked her up and rubbed his nose against hers. It was a moment I wish I could recapture. I take my kids to get their pictures with this particular Santa on their first Christmas. This is a tradition Brittney started for me. On Mckenna's first Christmas she surprised me with a picture of her with Santa. I loved it... and so I have continued it with each of the kids. Mckenna convinced me this year that she already had enough pictures with Santa and didn't need anymore so I didn't force her to have another one. Looking back now I wish I would have. I know the magic of Christmas will soon be gone for her.

Amazing! How do you do it, Christa? My kids need to take lessons from your kids on how to take normal pictures. I don't know, the picture we have of Bryce and Santa this year is pretty stellar. :)

Those are so precious. I love the story of santa and Mia, what an awesome story to always have for her!
p.s. I wish that Santa would travel to Wisconsin!
Those pictures turned out amazing.
Fun to see that Kaden was all smiles for his first visit.
