A Visit with Ol' St. Nick

Mary Ellen had her first visit with the Big Man this weekend. Brian's company had a really nice family party on Friday afternoon, complete with a train for the kids to ride (not this year, Mary Ellen), snow flurries, and roving carolers. But the highlight for us was, of course, a visit with Santa Claus. Mary Ellen was a great sport about it, and after waiting in line for nearly a half hour, she still had a little bit of good humor left for St. Nick. We're not sure what she's wishing for this year, though. Odds are, her wishes have to do with feet or pacifiers - these being her top two choices of things to put in her mouth.

Waiting in line isn't so bad when it means that you get to hang out with Daddy during the day, right Mary Ellen?


She really wasn't too scared of Ol' St. Nick, though her face tells a different story here.

  2. Way jealous that you can sit outside in just shorts. Better bring some pants when you head north for the holidays. Looking forward to seeing all of you.
