Visiting Santa Clause at Dana's house

Santa came to Dana's house for a visit and all of the kids got to visit with him and his reindeer.
Santa even had a gift in his bag for Austin!

Ava waited a very, very, very long time, not quite as long as her friend Ramsey but she was getting a little nervous that Santa might not have anything in his bag for her...

still worried and started chewing on her hands...

Whew! It was so worth with wait! She told him that she was a good girl and made sure to tell him every last thing she wanted. Ava was not scared of Santa this year.

A little shy maybe but not scared!
