A visit with Santa

Winter Wonderland was Friday night in Atascadero...and we had our dry run with Santa there. He was insistent he would not sit on Santa's lap but mommy or daddy would hold him when he told Santa he anted a Bertie Bus for Christmas. And that is just how it went down. On Saturday we ventured down to SLO to see Miss Melissa play and sing at the Mission, where Santa's house also sits this time of year. Again, Bix insisted that we would hold him while he repeated to Santa his wish for a Bertie Bus. But Santa was a little more in the groove of plopping children on his lap this time and Bix sailed down with an anxious look on his face. Mommy and Daddy were knelt down next to Santa though...so he survived with no major upset and is likely to stronger for it. Overall it was a much better experience than last year...when he screamed for someone to get the little girl off the strange man's lap. Anyways..here we all are :)
