As the build up to Christmas continued, Libby and Mary had an extremely busy week. In seven days, they went to two different Breakfasts with Santa and met Santa at a family Christmas party. That's a whole lotta Santa for one week. Libby does very well with the big guy, until it's her turn to sit on his lap... When he makes his grand entrance, Libby makes sure EVERYONE in the building knows that HO-HO just arrived. She'll follow him around the room pointing and yelling "HO! HO! HO!" It's as if she's letting the world in a little secret that only she knows!
The first Santa was a lounge singer at Dad's work. He sang songs and read stories. Libby ate it up. When it was time sit on his lap, however, she covered her face and wouldn't even look at him (or the camera). Santa number two was at Mom's family party. This went much better. Libby wouldn't pose for a picture, but she did sit down and have a nice talk with Santa. Santa number three was at Aunt Holly's work. He was kind of creepy, so no one blames Libby for not wanting to hang with him that much.
Mary did much better, getting pictures with Santa on two different occasions. It was probably silly for Mom and Dad to think they could get a picture with both girls. But, word on the street is that Santa is making a cameo at Grammie and Papa Yandek's on Christmas Eve, so one never knows!
The rest of the Christmas season has been spent making cookies, watching Dora's Christmas adventures ad nauseam, and wrapping (or un-wrapping, in Libby's case) presents. Libby definitely gets excited at the sight of Santa and knows something is up. Can't wait to see how she does on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. It should be pretty entertaining. And maybe, just maybe, Mary Frances will be awake for some of the festivities!
