Nice Lady

Mrs. Claus visited Owatonna today, and we were not about to pass up an opportunity to meet her! A recent visit with Mr. Santa Claus didn't go so well (I'll post pictures later), so we gave Miles a pep talk and explained that Mrs. Claus is a very nice lady. It must have worked because when we arrived, he pointed to her and said "NICE LLLLLLADY!" If an adult male had said that very same thing in the very same way, he would've been kicked out right quick. But Miles got away with it, charming Mrs. Claus so much that she offered him a seat right next to her.


I think Miles realized that beneath the beautiful gray hair was a young and hip gal. Perhaps he caught on to it when they posed for some pictures...Mrs. Claus let out a valley girl "CHEEEAZ!".

Miles' good friend Ava sat on Mrs. Claus' other side. She took her time warming up to the jolly lady, but that's okay. It's best to use caution when in the presence of strangers - especially those who give you cookies.


Miles was thrilled when his other good friend Carsen showed up for the fun, too.
CHEEAZ!
Mrs. Claus is a very kind woman, full of patience and big smiles. She also makes darn good sugar cookies. Santa and the elves are lucky!

Maybe Miles will be more inclined to talk to Santa now that he knows his wife is a nice lady!

Looks like Mrs. Claus hasn't been eating too many of those cookies... she's awfully trim. Or was it an imposter?!
