Santa Visit 2015

Delaney's school had breakfast with Santa this weekend. And I realized that school food is still "school food".  She has been telling me she can't tell me what she's going to ask Santa for for Christmas and how it's a secret. Just before we left, I got out of her the four things she wants:

1. A Pony

2. A dollhouse

3. Play doh

4. An American Girl Doll

I tried to "listen in" when she was talking to Santa and I heard her say "a pony".

She told me she only asked for two of the four things:

1. A Pony

2. A dollhouse

If only Santa's workshop wasn't already closed!

Delaney had a very exciting weekend! On Friday night, we had movie, pizza and popcorn night (she wanted us to play Bunco!). I showed Delaney the previews for Babes in Toyland to see if she wanted to watch it and she told me no, it looked like a movie from the 80's or 90's!

Delaney thinks ALL movies look like that when they aren't in HD. Delaney is an HD snob (just like her daddy)!

On Saturday, she got to go to the Circus with one of her friends from school. To say she was excited is a major understatement. She was equally excited to ride in the little girl's parents' mini van! 

TRUE STORY FRIENDS!!

The mom text me pictures. I was so excited to see Delaney with her overpriced snow cone but I don't want to post a picture of the girls on the world wide web without their permission so you'll have to take my word that it was full of cuteness! I think the best part of this story is the following text between me and my aunt after I sent her pictures:

Me: Delaney is at the circus with her friend from school.

Aunt: Did you take her?

Me: No, the mom came and picked her up.

Aunt: OMG You are not even there, Dave would have a fit!!!

Me: I KNOW.............................

I got THE BEST advice from Julie the day before (at 4 months older and 4 more kids than me she is SO wise) about Delaney doing things with kids from school. I was 100% comfortable with Delaney going to the circus. And just as soon as my sweet little thing got home, she turned around and left again (didn't even take off her coat) just like a teenager! She even kept the change from the money I gave her to buy a snack at the circus #girlsareexpensive.
