Santa Claus

Nyah kept telling me that Santa was coming this year and that she was going to ride on his sleigh behind his reindeer. She has been extremely focused on the reindeer. She lets me know that there are 1, 2, 3, 4. And that Santa says 1, 2, 3, 4 all go! And she also has shown me multiple times how he holds the reins to get them to go. It cracks be up.

My work party was at the same time as our Ward Party this year. As a result Milly and Becca volunteered to take them and I was ever so grateful. Here are a few photos from their evening at their house and then later at the party.

When the time came for Nyah and Trey to actually sit on Santa's lap, however, it was not as simple as it has been in the past. For some reason they both decided he was scary. Trey was screaming and refused to get close.

 

 Thank goodness Ashley was there, so Trey could at least be in the picture.

Nyah was hesitant at first, but did eventually sit down after being coaxed with candy. Although as you can see by the look that she has on her face it is not her favorite thing in the world.

We did finally get to the party, but it was toward the end.
