After dinner last night we took her to an outdoor shopping mall that is always festive with holidays and is really just fun to go to year around because they have concerts, open air markets, wine tastings, and they host The Taste of Atlanta. Ella Ann loved all the pretty lights and the giant Christmas tree in the courtyard. We also took her to see Santa Clause, but the pictures below are all that we will have because she was not too fond of Mr. Clause at all! She was very scared of him, but would let me go with her to shake his hand and say hi. After that meeting she talked about him nonstop! We hung around until 7:30 p.m. (grandparents aren't you so proud of me that I actually kept my child up past her bedtime for something fun??!!) because the fake snow fell at that hour around the tree. Ella Ann wasn't too sure of the snow either but had a good time playing in it if Daddy was holding her! She really had a great time, as did Spencer and I!
The pictures below aren't the best, but it's hard to take good ones in the dark!
The little blur is Ella Ann.
"Do you want to sit in Santa's lap?" I asked. "NO!" replied Ella Ann.
Santa did try to bribe her onto his lap with some little toys, but that wouldn't persuade her one tiny bit!
Ella Ann's favorite mode of transportation! She scratches Spencer's beard the entire time she's up on his shoulders! This also kept her from running around and breaking things in the stores!
"Snowfwakes Mommy!" is what she kept saying.
She did like the snow, but you can't tell in this picture!
