La Grande had a Victorian Santa here in town today. I have never seen a live Victorian Santa before. We made sure to get out and see this Santa, as he cannot be the same old boring mall Santa everyone gets to see. And I was right, this Santa was beautiful. A beautiful set up for him to sit in and all. A better set up then the one I used to work at Fashion Plaza in Newport Beach, California. And absolutely no line. And get this, you bring your own camera and take pictures, or you can pay the professional for the pictures, but only if you want to. I LOVE La Grande!
We got Hailey all excited to see Santa, and when she got there she stared at him in awe. That same, stars in her eyes when daddy gets home from work look. It was so cute. He called her over, and she gladly marched right up to him, sat on his lap and began to tell him what she wanted for Christmas.
I couldn't have been more happy with that Santa then if I had gone to a large city and stood in line for hours. In fact, I was more pleased than I have ever been with a Santa. Besides, those lines bring out all the ugliness in parents, and that's just not what Christmas is about.
