Marine Corp Ball 2008

Once a year, I get to dress up for the Marine Corp Ball. This year the ball was held in Arlington. It was great to get out of the house and have a night out with my Handsome Husband.

Santa, Batman and Scooby Doo

So we decided to go to the mall this year and take pictures with Santa. Dylan was fine with it last year and did well this year too. Caitlyn was only 8 months last year and didn't know what was going on. So this is what was going on before we went and saw Santa. I don't think she knew what was coming.

So, I am holding Caitlyn and it is our turn to go up and Dylan hops right up into his lap. Caitlyn is now clenching onto my shoulder and starts to cry. She starts calling for her daddy. So Clif sits down with her and manages to calm her down enough to get this picture.

We decided to go to Six Flags last week. We found Batman and Hawkgirl and Dylan loves Batman. Caitlyn actually gave Batman a high five and told him hi. I was actually suprised. I thought she would cry.

We also saw scooby doo and I thought scooby, being a doggie and Caitlyn liking doggies, would be okay with Caitlyn. Nope, we started crying and wanting nothing to do with him.

So when it came to the Ward Christmas Party, Dylan was the only one to sit on Santa's lap.
