Christmas is a'comin'!

We went to lunch with Santa at the city building last weekend and this was as close as my girl would get to Santa:

Not bad!  I had her on my opposite hip, closer to Santa, and she wiggled around to get herself a little further away from the big guy but I was still proud of her!

She had fun making some crafts, eating some pizza, and running around with Alli.

 

Last night we went to the Festival of Lights at the Cincinnati Zoo with GranJan and Grandpa.  Lucy was in a MOOD at first so we were all a little unsure of how the night would go but it turned out to be a nice night!

 

They had a little workshop set up where kids could write a letter to Santa (or, in Lucy's case, scribble all over a letter template) so Daddy helped her with hers.

GranJan and Grandpa showed her where to "mail" her letter (though she opted to keep hers instead).
