Visit with Santa

Roger Gardens, Newport Beach, CA

We got there an hour before Santa arrived and it was probably one of the longest waiting hours for Kristina as you can see from the pictures.




We kept her entertained and try to guess where Santa was going to come from...she was so sure that he was coming form the sky in his sleigh. And then, there he was and after a "No, that is not him", there was a "Oh yeah, yeah, he is there" and a freeze as she realized that he was finally here. (You got a love the Free Santa).

She was the first one to see Santa. No other kids on line so he spent a good 10 minutes with her. She cut out some things she wanted out of Toy's R Us and Target ads on Sunday morning and glued it to a piece of paper (kept her busy for a while) to share with Santa. She wants a cup cake maker, an electric guitar and some stand with tools (she is my girly/boy so cool!). But after sharing with him she went speechless! First time in my life I see her just pause and take it all in. She was amazed to be there. It makes me happy to see her enjoy Christmas.


I like how in this picture she just listens quietly to what he had to say. Afterwards she kept saying "Did you see Santa? That was so awesome!".
