Christmas 2008

we took the girls on friday to see the annual train garden at kenilworth mall. while we were there, we noticed that santa was already there and set up to take christmas pictures with the kids. the girls are in love with santa and talk about him all the time. we have been reading the night before christmas at bedtime for about the last week or so and they love it. we assumed that they would be so excited to get their pictures made with him. well, we were wrong! mason was hysterical, screaming, "mommy, hold you" and clinging to me for her life. preslee was a little better until drew set her on santa's lap. then she started to say, "no, santa" and cry. so, the cute posed santa picture of the girls became a non-planned family photo. needless to say, drew and i weren't exactly dressed for the occasion but it made for a cute memory. sorry santa!
