After dinner, we got in line for our turn with Santa. Caroline got to go first out of her friends, but I'm afraid she didn't set a very good example. She looked very uneasy when I sat in Santa's lap with her in my arms. As soon as I attempted the hand-off to Santa, the tears set in and Caroline squirmed with all her might to get free. She was quickly set down, handed a candy cane, and ushered off the stage. Of course, by the time we got back to our table, she was perfectly fine.
Soon after we bundled up and headed outside to wander through the botanical gardens and see all the beautiful lights and displays. Even though it was chilly, we had a fantastic time with our friends and are so glad we squeezed in one last event before the "big one" this weekend!
Tomorrow we're headed to Atlanta for the holiday. Stay tuned to see and hear about Caroline's 2nd Christmas!
All dressed up and ready to go to dinner!

Mission: failed!
