Ava goes to see Santa!

This is Ava about 10 minutes before countdown to seeing Santa. All dressed up in her little christmas outfit (that was actually Heather's outfit back in 1979!) and ready to go.



This is Ava when she realizes that we are actually in a line waiting to see Santa. She hadn't slept all day and we knew it was a matter of time before she fell asleep. And one thing we have learned to NOT do is abruptly wake her up to do something she doesn't want to. So... we waited with anticipation to she what she would do....


.... And like a pro, she woke up as we lifted her out of stroller and handed her to Santa and loved every second of it. Below is the picture that I grabbed with Heather's i-phone (I'll scan the official $19.99 photo and post it later)



And here is the video I snagged (also with Heather's i-phone). Notice that the lady in charge was very concerned with what I'm doing... asking me "if I'm filming" and then telling me "you're in the shot" when I got to close. Oh well, we were excited!
