kinley & santa

Kinley really was excited about Santa this year...she loves watching him on tv shows, reading about him in books, talking about him and waving to him from afar. So, I thought this year she would love to go see Santa. I thought surely it would be better than the mug shot from last year. She went to the mall with Bart, Olivia and Mom while I was at work this week and I knew they would have a fantastic experience.

She got to take her naked babydoll with her...

and waved....

stood in line patiently...

stared longingly...

kindly said hello...

and then freaked out!

poor Santa...

and thus our final shot...

not sure it's better than last year...but, we will be sure to tearily wave goodbye until next year!

Merry Christmas Eve to you all! Hope Santa comes to visit you!
