Sullivan always enjoys seeing Santa!

After our wonderful Thanksgiving in Mississippi our Christmas festivities began the next week. We started with going back to school and making some fun ornaments that were eventually brought home. Ward was out of town that Thursday night, which is uncommon for him and during the day on Friday. So as you all can imagine those two days were eventful for Sullivan and I. But that Friday we went to the Pink Pig with our friends in the neighborhood. Instead of our usual Cocktails and Crayons that we have at someones home, we went there and rode the pig together. For those of you that don't live in Atlanta, this is a very big deal for the kids here. Most people got to see Santa and then ride the Pink Pig. Sullivan was so excited to ride the Pink Pig and to be with all of his friends. But once we rode it Sullivan decided to be a bit frustrating, but daddy was home shortly after. I was supposed to go to a bar crawl that night, but decided I was too tired to attempt it, but glad that everyone that went had a great time.


On Saturday, Sullivan had a birthday party to go to and it was a princess party. He had fun with his girl and guy friends. Later that evening, we had our Atlanta Family Christmas party at Nicole and Patrick's house. Which was a lot of fun! We had yummy food, great friends (Ashley & Matt, us, & Nicole & Patrick), and of course football games on the TV. Ashley & Matt gave Nicole & I something similar to snuggies, but we ca
lled them our Neiman Marcus snuggies. We have both used them and love them, sometimes Bailey tries to fight me for mine. We all had a great time and stay
ed out and up too late, but it was worth it.

On Sunday, we had another birthday party. This one was for our old pal Jack and we got to see a lot of friends that Sullivan nor I had seen in a while. It was at this place called Therafun Sensations and it was a really neat place. They had a zip line which Sullivan the daredevil of course rode several times. When you got to the end of the zip you drop off into a big pool of balls. After all the fun was had, we went home and Sullivan took a nap while I got the house ready to get a tree. We got our tree that night, but Sullivan was in a bad mood so he went to sleep while I put on the lights and decorated. We ended up decorating the tree the next night somewhat with Sullivan's help.
We took Sullivan to see Santa at Lenox Mall, which is always the same Santa. Sullivan knows him everytime and he always recognizes Sullivan. He always mentions his beautiful blue eyes. This year Sullivan was in line behind two different groups that cried profusely when they got near Santa and when their parents saw how Sullivan just ran up there and gave him a hug and climbed on his lap and said "Merry Christmas Santa!" They couldn't believe it and called him a pro, but in reality he isn't scared of much so that was no surprise to me. Then he proceeded to tell Santa what he wanted and smiled for his photo. Hope you guys enjoy the pictures! Have a great Holiday!!!!
