After dinner, we walked down to get read for a spot to see the tree lighting and see Santa. They had a lighted area and cookies and cocoa available. Connor had relayed to Michael during dinner how cute that Katelyn was. We ALL agree.
After cookies and cocoa were consumed, Santa arrived on a sleigh pulled by a firetruck.
After Santa passed by, our focus turned to the tree lighting. Apparently, the tree didn't want to cooperate. Luckily, they figured it out quickly and it was beautiful.
We headed up to Barnes and Noble with John, Jen and Katie. Katie's parents were concerned that she wasn't going to be a fan of Santa but that it was worth a try. Jackson found a book to read and moved up when asked but was immersed while Connor and Katelyn got their shop on. They found books and Star Wars figures.
Katie's parents offered to let the boys go first in hopes that Katelyn would change her mind. Jackson and Connor walked up and they asked for Legos and anything Star Wars.
When it was Katie's turn, things didn't go very well. She was sobbing and shrieking at the same time and it was very sad. They had her sit with him but I wasn't in a good spot to get a picture. Fortunately, she recovered quickly and was happy again after she was not on his lap.
It was a great night and we are ready for a fun holiday season.
