Santa Hugs

Last week, Noel visited Santa at our local mall. We've been preparing her for weeks, showing her pictures of him, and telling her what to expect. We weren't sure if she'd have the same reaction as last year, which was...completely terrified.

When she saw Santa she was a little hesitant at first. But he bent down to talk to her, and she gave him the biggest bear hug! It was incredibly sweet :) I wish I had a video of their meeting!

She sat on his lap for an extended period of time, completely consumed with the candy cane he gave her. She forgot what she wanted to ask for, but thankfully we were able to see Santa again this week at playgroup!

Here is a picture of her picture with Santa.
