Visit with Santa

We had a lot of company for Lauren's first Santa visit...we went with aunt KK, cousin Saylor and Uncle Pete along with a good chunk of Uncle Pete's family. One of Uncle Pete's cousins, Natalie, has been coming to see Santa here for the last 30 years (she is 31). He hasn't changed much in that time, still begining with a prayer at the nativity scene and finishing with his annual press conference taking the time to answer all the children's questions. After the press conference everyone lines up to talk to Santa and get pictures. Lauren was great with the jolly fellow and with Elmo's help (foreground) we got her first visit on camera. Santa then had the whole family come up so we could get a family photo. The third photo is me laughing as Santa explains to Susan that if she leaves her shoes outside her door on Christmas eve, Santa will bring her something shiny and leave it in the left shoe.
