Not So Jolly With St. Nick

We talked him up. Nico has carried around our mini UT Santa for the past week. We discussed sitting with him and taking a picture, him saying "Ho-ho-ho" and her telling him "Merry Christmas!" She was game! She hurried us through dinner to go to the "festival" (Lights of Love 5K event at Mueller) so we could see Santa and "eat cake" (not sure where that came from). But, when the actual time came, Nico was NOT having it.


If I don't look at him, he is not there.


I will take his candy cane offering...


...but it's not fooling me into liking this Santa thing.
Let the holiday magic begin.

MERKA asking!

Too funny. I imagine the same thing happening with Iz - we still haven't taken her! (Are we bad?)

Hardly 'bad', Mine! While having a toddler-crying-Santa-pic seems to be a tradition for many, it's a rather odd activity to freak a kid out about a strange man in a beard who is asking her to sit on his lap... Of course, we did it. hehe
