Santa has arrived!!
I expected the girls up at the break of dawn but I had to go in and wake them up at 8:45. I’m not complaining, I never mind sleeping in. The girls were thrilled to see all their packages under the tree and were very pleased to see the milk and cookies had disappeared.
Annabelle had requested 44 ponies. Santa brought her one giant pony, because of course if she got 44 there would 43 little girls who didn’t get any. (Yep, that worked!) She also received books, movies, all things Barbie, Ariel, and Hello Kitty.
Gwyneth had requested Buzz Lightyear. Santa delivered with an action figure Buzz Lightyear and a Stuffy Buzz Lightyear. The big hit was the stuffed Bullseye (that’s Jesse’s horse…to the non-ToyStory-fanatics). She opened up her horse and did lapse around the house screaming “It’s just what I always wanted”. Santa did good.
The girls picked out special gifts for each other. Annabelle received a Barbie and scooter and Gwyneth received a Jesse doll. They loved their gifts and both took a lot of pride in what they purchased for each other. They picked them out all by themselves! There were very big hugs exchanged after this photo.
