Santa Clause

 

Just like last year, we hit up the Beau Rivage Casino to get pictures with Santa. This year, we went with our neighbors, which was nice since we also had about an hour wait before Santa showed up for pictures. It was a packed house, so it's a really good thing that we thought about getting in line an hour before Santa was due for pictures.

 

 

I was very unsure on how McKenna was going to react to Santa. She has never been too happy with anyone dressed up, but when Santa first came out and was walking around, she seemed really interested in him. Then it was the girls turn to sit on Santa's lap and McKenna wasn't happy. She was very unhappy, but Courtney sat her on Santa's lap anyways and the cries started. McKaila was so excited to sit on Santa's lap and told him that she wanted Frozen stuff for Christmas.

As we waited for the Santa pictures to be printed out, we went and got the girls their milk and cookies, along with coffee for Courtney and I, then we went to the arcade to let the kids play some games. McKaila went straight for the skee-ball game. Of coarse, it didn't take long before McKenna wanted to be part of the game too. It was so cute to watch them try their hardest to roll the balls into the numbers, and it was even cuter to see their excitement when they scored as McKaila would yell out.

 

I felt horrible for having to put McKenna on the lap of Santa, but I got to say, I can't help but smile when I see the girls picture with Santa. It's priceless.
