Mr. Whitebeard

Today was a big day in Graceland.  

She's heard about him in songs and seen his pictures, but today, for the first time, Grace got to meet Santa in person.

And the girl was all dressed for business.


We got a tip from the North Pole that Santa was swinging by Macy's today, so we loaded up onto the subway and headed to midtown Manhattan.

And there...was Santaland. 


A Christmas spectacular, made even more spectacular that we went early on a Tuesday morning when there was literally no one in line.


Grace could spend hours staring at all the pretty lights, but it was time to meet the big guy.

Wondering if his beard or glasses were in serious danger from the Gracer's lightning quick, kung-fu grip, we cautiously placed her in Santa's lap.   

Grace was in awe.


Get your left leg ready, Santa.   Next year, we're filling up that lap.

  1. Woohoo! Good girl, Gracer! Not so sure about Santa - he looks a little stiff. Maybe try a different store next year. xoxo
