Meeting Santa

On Sunday afternoon we went to the Operations Group Children's Christmas Party. Even though Caroline is way to young to enjoy the activities, or even remember it, I wanted to get her picture with Santa. The party is really fun for the older kids. Santa arrives in an F-16 (he almost fell trying to climb out!!) and hands out toys to all the kids, there is a bouncy castle, games, cookie decorating, etc. I volunteered at one of the activities and Sean took care of Caroline. Even though she couldn't participate much, she really enjoyed watching the kids run around on sugar highs.

Caroline's first meeting with Santa went pretty well. First she smiled at him and sat in his lap for a few minutes. Then she decided that she'd had enough, started crying, and reached up to Daddy hoping he'd rescue her. I was a bad mommy, and laughed and took pictures of her crying. I know she'll enjoy looking at them one day!!!

Caroline,Oh my love, you are so cute! I am sorry I didn't get to see Santa with you. I had other obligations like napping because I was not feeling good. Hope to see you soon.
Love your future husband,
Ryan

Caroline is so cute! She looks adorable in her little Christmas dress. Connor and I are sad that we will not get to see you all for a while :( Have a very Merry Christmas and safe travels to Texas!
