Santa came to our ward party Friday night. The kids were excited all day to see Santa until they actually saw him enter the building. After that Emma was begging to go home, and Andrew had changed his mind about sitting on his lap.

Andrew worked up enough courage to stand next to Santa and actually talk to him.

After watching her sister and brother visit Santa, Emma ran up to him, but when he reached out to pick her up she turned and ran away. With her daddy's help she took the candy cane out of Santa's hand, and stood there with her siblings long enough for mommy to take a quick picture.
