Breakfast with Santa at the Ritz

My mom and I took Lauren to breakfast with Santa at the Ritz Carlton this morning. It was fun to get her all dressed up and do something just us girls! Next year we are going to take the guys along but Michael is still a little too rowdy this year!  The breakfast was a buffet set up from 9:30 to 12:30 and only open for people with reservations. You could show up any time and stay as long as you wanted. We got there early (right at 9:30) and the entire time we were there there were only 3 other families that came. Our table was also right next to the platform Santa was sitting on.

My beautiful girl all dressed up!

We were checking out Santa- at this point she wasn't to sure about getting close to him.

I covered her in napkins to avoid her spilling her yogurt on her clothes.

Santa was reading Christmas stories to everyone.

After breakfast my mom got Lauren a teddy bear that she was able to build and dress herself (similar to build a bear).

Her bear is all stuffed and dressed and were ready to go. We had a fabulous time and Lauren was on her best behavior- I couldn't have asked for a better morning.
