ho ho ho...

so here's ellie, checkin' santa out.

then, ellie kicked santa out of his chair and started posing...

but then she decided to let him sit down again-- she wanted a picture with her soon-to-be partner in crime, annabelle.

nice indeed.

(pics taken by annabelle's supermom, angie. i'm so lucky to have a bff whose also a great photographer. score!)
