A Busy Week

Last Tuesday was Chris' 30th Birthday! And because he was adamant about not having a surprise party, or any party for that matter, we celebrated as a family.

Helping Daddy put together his birthday puzzle surprise!

Then on Saturday morning we headed to Atlanta to see Santa. 

 While waiting in line, we filled out our wish lists. Kate asked for a bubble machine and a baby doll, while Caroline asked for a High Chair for Sally (her baby doll). Everyone was still smiling and we were actually having to hold Kate back from skipping people in line. But when it came down to sitting in Santa's lap, the fear set in for poor Caroline. We forced encouraged her to sit with Santa, long enough for the photographer to get their picture. Kate on the other hand was hilarious. She walked straight to Santa, got on his lap and just stared at him wondering what all the fuss was about. NO FEAR!!!!
 Poor Caroline didn't recover until we got to The Pink Pig at Macy's.

Pink. pink and more pink! 
 Giving Pricilla the pig a big squeeze! (She wouldn't go near the live version in the costume- shocker!)
Caroline would have ridden that pink train for hours. She loved it!

And we ended the weekend with the girls' first Auburn basketball game at the new arena.
They actually enjoyed it, especially the snacks at the concession stand, all the music, the interactive screens they could play with, and of course watching Aubie from a distance.




 Kate liked dancing to the music more than sitting! :)

Sounds fun! I can't wait to take our girls to ride the Pink Pig!! Our girls are also a little scared of Santa but they LOVE Aubie. Go figure!
