Postcards From the Beach

We arrived at the beach Friday evening and are staying until Monday morning - just a quick getaway! We're spending our time relaxing, doing some online Christmas shopping, and we had Sunday brunch at Beaufort Grocery.

Today Connor and Dad spent a few minutes on the beach (it's kinda cold out there now) and yesterday we all went to the Emerald Isle, NC Christmas parade!

Santa Claus is Coming to Town!

Most recently, Santa was at Montgomery Mall!

Connor was excited to go see Santa, but once at the mall he said that he didn't want to sit on his lap. We stood in line to wait anyways - apparently Santa work before 12 noon. Thankfully Santa was a pro! He asked Connor for a High Five which broke the ice and then asked him about his little brother.

We were too busy getting set up for the picture that we couldn't hear what he asked Santa for Christmas, but most recently he's been saying "anything." Previously, he was asking for a piano and a "see-saw castle." Whatever that is! Does anyone know what a "see saw castle" is? If so, Santa would love to know!

Connor: **sounds of repetitive hiccups**

Connor: Uh, oh!

Dad: What's wrong, Connor?

Connor: I'm hicking up!

Daddy: Connor, you are all over the place! Do you have ants in your pants?

Connor: No, just pockets.
