My favorite time of year...
My poor little guy did not enjoy that one bit. This year I really talked it up. He grasp the concept that Santa brings him all those toys, he gets that the Elves work hard to make those, and he also now understands that Elfred (our silly little Elf) really does report to Santa on Ryson's behavior. As we started talking about it Ryson insisted that he would talk to Santa. I must say that I did nto believe him. Off we go in our pretty little outfit face all clean no tears and laughing as we drive to Leigh Ann's. All throughout this drive all I can think about is I'm getting ready to spend money on pictures that Ryson is goign to scream and cry in. Little did I know though....we walk in and Ryson immediately runs back to tell me he saw Santa and he is so excited to sit on his lap. SUCCESS!!!!!
So as you see this year was a huge hit. I love all my pictures. Ronifotos did an amazing job with the kids and the pictures couldn't have been any better then these! Ryson couldn't stop talking about Santa and it made me so happy for him to enjoy this experience. We have since visited Santa another two times this month. The second time we went to the Horse Park to see the lights and do all the fun kiddy activities. This Santa pic does not compare to the one above but Ryson sure did love talking to him once again.
After telling Santa what he wanted and giving him lots of hugs we had to rush home and get ready for bed because Ryson had to visit Santa one last time before Christmas. The next morning Ryson got to go to Frankfort and hang out with his Gammie. She works for the State Police and they were all so kind enough to let the kids come have lunch with them and visit Santa. Ryson loved it. He loves Police and think they are just absolutely AWESOME!!!! His gammie said he loved visiting Santa and he even offered to help a little boy who was scared of Santa...LOVE HIS HEART!!
