Weekend with Santa

Generally my two favorite “events” of the holiday season apart from the family celebrations are Betsy’s “Santa party” and brunch with Santa at PCC.  Both of these events fell on the same weekend this year and neither disappointed. 

Copeland was not so sure about Santa at the Santa party, but Mac had no problem letting Santa know what he wanted for Christmas, what Coe wanted for Christmas and what Finley wanted!  He also made sure that Santa knew he was “going to be at my G’s house in Birmingham so please bring my presents there and not to Pensacola!”  Finely was very fond of Santa’s beard every time she sat in his lap.      IMG_4821 IMG_4825 IMG_4829 IMG_4843 IMG_4854 IMG_4864 IMG_5203 copyBetsy’s Santa party is great because she covers her garage in white paper and the kids can color all over the floor while eating their treats and drinking drink boxes.  Copeland was in heaven!  He also has finally decided that he really likes Frances.  No more playing hard to get.   IMG_5601 IMG_5606   IMG_5625 IMG_5628 IMG_5629IMG_5630

*Yes Copeland is covered in marker in all these pictures.  This was right after I found him eating a black marker.IMG_5614 IMG_5619IMG_5638

Betsy’s Santa party is just…well perfect!  The kids love it.  The parents love it and I think Santa loves it!  Richie takes the best photos of the kids – it is pretty obvious which pics he took above and which ones were shot by me!  I hope the Daniels continue to make this an annual tradition. 

The next day we headed to the Country Club for brunch with Santa.  Coe sat in Santa’s lap with a lot less hesitation this time, but he still seems to prefer him better from afar.

We tried to take a few pictures in front of Yaya’s tree once we got finished with brunch, but by that point Mac was sweaty from running around the golf course with Jack, shirts were untucked and Coe and Finley needed to nap.  IMG_5719

It was a great weekend with Santa.  I sure hope everyone stays on the nice list and he comes to visit G’s house very soon!
