Visit with Santa

We made our annual trip down to Phipps Plaza this year to see Santa! Tieg and I started this tradition when Grayson was an infant. We have had this day scheduled since October since we had to have an appointment. Santa is absolutely beautiful and is great with the kids. We always have the visit video taped and you can hear what the kids are saying to Santa and it is priceless. It is awesome to watch the video and see how big the kids get each year. The first year we handed over our baby boy into Santa's arms to now when he walks right up and climbs up on his own. Where does the time go? Grayson was a little on the shy side this year and didn't have much to say. He told me on the way down that he was going to be embarrassed, but he handled the situation well. Kinsley surprised us and sat on his lap without screaming. She was funny because she wouldn't look at him and was as stiff as a board. The only way she got on his lap was because Santa told her she could have a candy cane when she was done. A Santa after my own heart working the bribery! They did very well!

Santa reading their Wish Lists!

It was great to see the kids after they got to see Santa (notice she got her candycane)! They sat on the steps and talked about it together. It is so neat to see them carry on conversations now! Kinsley is talking up a storm and doesn't stop!
