Dashing Through The Sand!

Let's face it, we live in Florida.  No matter how many times we sing Jingle Bells, it is still 81 degrees outside!

This past weekend was more ho ho ho fun!  The girls and I enjoyed Breakfast with Santa at Chick Fil A.  Makena waved to Santa, which is a big step forward for her!

Later that afternoon we attended Cookies with Santa.  An annual tradition with some friends of ours and their kids.  The Santa that comes to this event every year is amazing.  He reads The Night Before Christmas, sprinkles magic elf dust on the Christmas tree, pulls out his list of Good Kids.  He is just great.  This was the first Santa Melia would approach when she was a baby.  And he had the same affect on Makena.  She wouldn't sit on his lap, but did go up to him to get her present and give a high five!

On Sunday, Daddy and Grammy took Melia to Pinellas Park Library for a Christmas celebration.  They watched a Christmas Super Why special, made crafts, ate snacks and of course, spent time with Santa!  Melia has only asked Santa for 2 things this year.  She is consistent with each ask.  Spaghetti and a violin.  Really hoping their is an Elmo Guitar under the tree for her!  And I guess we are having spaghetti for dinner on Christmas Day!
