Ho, Ho, Ho

Carmen and Max got an extra special visit from Santa this weekend at a Skurski family Christmas celebration.  Carmen loves pointing to Santa and itentifiying him in books, on TV and decorations on houses, but she was a little less enthusiastic about seeing him in the flesh.  She wasn't so sure at first but was a trooper and did sit on his lap without any tears.  The fact that Santa had a gift with her name on it and there was a candy cane involved was just enough motivation.  Max was unfazed by the whole event and gladly complied with being passed off to the man in the red suit.  Hopefully this is a sign of things to come when it's time for Santa photos.
