Taste of the Holidays at Cashwise

Isabel enjoyed dancing to the carolers that were singing at the store. They thought she was pretty cute. We've been singing Christmas carols at home & in the car. Her favorite songs are Deck the Halls, Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer, Jingle Bells and Winter Wonderland.

Here is a picture of Isabel with Santa.

With a little assistance from daddy, Isabel wrote a letter to Santa and then decorated the letter and also painted him a picture. He seemed impressed that she did all that for him. I don't think kids write letters to actually give to Santa these days much. Anyways, you can see her giving it to him. She was VERY excited to give it to him. The decorated letter is on one paper and then a painting on a another paper and them she glued them together.


Isabel had her visit & picture with Santa when we first got to Cashwise, but Henry was sleeping. By the end of our shopping trip (& all the samples - tastes of the holidays) he was awake and we took pictures of him with Santa. Isabel was so excited to see Henry with Santa that she gave up going on her beloved penny horse so that she go with Henry. Isn't that sweet! We told her since Henry just woke up we were going to have to go home right away after he sat on Santa's lap because he would be hungry ( & HE WAS!) and she would go onthe penny horse with daddy while mommy & Henry went by Santa.

Isabel says she loves Santa and that "He's the Best!"
