The Santa Stare

Santa made a stop at the fire station on Saturday night.  We thought it was the perfect opportunity to get some pictures of Elise and "The Big Guy."  Obviously she didn't see him last year since she was only about 8 weeks old, and you know there was no way I was dragging my new little baby out in the cold to get infested with germs.

This Santa was a balloon animal making Santa.  He had a crowd of little girls around him while he diligently made weenie dogs and penguins while chatting up the kids.

Little Girl: "Where's your sleigh?"
Santa: "It's at the airport."
LG: "Then how did you get here?"
SC: "In the fire truck."
LG: "Which one?"
SC: "The one that's parked out front."

She seemed content with his final answer and quit grilling him like Filet Mignon.  Then she continued on with her list of what she wanted for Christmas while Elise just looked on.

Then Elise's turn came to sit with Santa.  All she did was STARE at him.  She did not take her eyes off of him the whole time.

Afterwards we went looking at Christmas lights.  There was one street in particular that was lit up like the freaking Fourth of July.  They definitely got the holiday spirit!  This is true dedication!
