As I mentioned in a past blog, the family didn’t get family holiday photos this year. Our schedules and budget did not allow for that. So when my coworker said her husband was playing Santa and that her friend was a photographer, I had to take advantage of this.
As the kids and I parked outside the photo studio, they both asked where the sleigh and reindeer were! I think I said they were on a coffee break. Lol
We were greeted by a large elf. He showed around and then we got photos done. Ella had drawn a picture for him. He was thrilled to get it. My coworker said he brought it home

I loved watching this. Andrew seemed a little unsure at first, but wound up having quite a conversation with him.

Ella never has a problem chatting with people. She talked about her Barbies, the new puppy, and whatever else came into head.

They both really had fun. The photographer got a couple solo shots, too


Santa was a giant compared to those two.

It wasn’t so noticable when he was sitting.

Because they told on me, I had to plead my case.

I guess I will find out if my begging worked on Christmas Day!
