Company Christmas Party

This year, because the party was not at Lake Louise, the kid's party was on a different day, so for the first time in 4 yrs (N was 2w old at the first party!) we were able to attend the Christmas party with Tash instead of the hotel sitter.

It was held at a Golf Club in the South and there were crafts, sleigh rides (too cold for us!), cupcake/cookie decorating and of course a visit from Santa and presents.

The meeting of Santa did not go as well as it did at the mall unfortunately. As soon as Santa walked in and sat in his chair Tash freaked out and started crying. She then spent the next 30-40m snuggled into my lap scared? When it was her turn to see Santa Owen took her up and she started screaming for me, so I went over as well. She calmed down when Santa gave her a give, but there was no way I was putting my child on his lap for a photo, free or not.

The somewhat funny part of the whole thing, was later when we asked what she thought of Santa, she said "He has presents!" in this sort of hushed voice. hah

No picture with Santa, but my little girl is finally starting to let me take her photo, so I did manage to get a few of her in front of the HUGE tree they had there. I could not get her in the right spot to avoid the blow out of lighting on the side of her face, but meh, this is me taking Brandy's advice and not trying to be such a perfectionist with memory 'snapshots' of my little girl. :0)
