smiling with Santa

Emi and I took on the task of taking the girls to see Santa. This involves a lot of promises and bribery! I had gummies, capri suns and chex mix! When our turn was next, I looked at Grace and said "you have to sit on Santa's lap and smile for the photo then I'll take you to ChickFila." Well people, it fricken worked!! This is one happy Momma! Ava ran right up to Santa and hopped on his lap. Grace took her time but eventually got up there. I said "smile" and the helper Elf snapped it! It was perfect! Our first year of smiles with Santa!!


BTW, we went to Chickfila and Grace cleaned her plate!
