Do you believe?

After family Gymboree today we went to the mall with Erin, Delaney, and Livi to have lunch and to whisper our Christmas wishes into Santa's ear. Now, last year Hanna wasn't very fond of the white bearded man but this year.......she couldn't wait to share what she wanted for Christmas. At first she was nervous and a little hesitant until she saw her best friend Delaney walk away unscathed. It might have helped that she had Haley up there with her even though Haley was sweetly oblivious to what was happening.

If you haven't gone to the Pinnacle Hills Promenade to see Santa......you need to. This jolly old elf embodies the whole concept of the magic of Christmas. I mean, I even wanted to sit in his lap and give him a big hug and tell him thank you! If you don't believe, you will after taking one look at this Santa Claus. You can take your own pictures, plus, you get a 20% off coupon from Gymboree!

For the last few months the only thing Hanna has exuberantly asked for is a "dwagon castle." She may have seen something on tv or in a magazine, I'm not really sure. She hasn't requested anything other than that. A few nights ago her Bratz spin toothbrush spinned for the last time and I casually mentioned that maybe Santa will bring her a new toothbrush. So, I thought the first thing she'd ask for would no doubt be the dragon castle, instead, she stuck her lower lip out and looked down and said "My brush teef hasn't been wooking to well." Of course he had to ask what she said and I shamefully explained that her tooth brush wasn't working. He said the funniest thing, "Well that is tragic." After a little coaxing, she finally admitted what she really wanted. We're counting on you Santa, don't let us down!

Thank you Nu-nu for the adorable reindeer sweater!
