Our First Christmas Eve

Christmas Eve

Daddy and his girls





Meeting Santa for the very first time







Santa and Lola







The girls with Santa, so calm, as if
this happens everyday around our house.












Lily with Santa

Then the dresses became toys...

Lola very content with hers off.

Lily, excited at Lola's idea of tights without dresses.

We are going to nickname Lily "The Body". Watch out Heidi Klum or is

it Elle McPherson?

Ain't life grand?

Funny, funny girls

Here we are with Gran and Grandad

Lily, excited that Santa will come back tonight!

Lola, our littlest elf

The girls really surprised us in how they reacted at Santa's visit Christmas Eve. No screaming or crying, it was great. Lola did a big double take the second Santa entered the room and then it was just acceptance from both of them, no crying. We were expecting histrionics. Next year, we will probably get some good crying.

Both Christmas Eve and Christmas Day the girls really seemed to sense the excitement of the holiday. They would get excited at opening presents and smiled and giggled all day long. It was just great for us to watch. Will post more pics over the next couple of days.

Love, Mel
