Festivities Galore

My school held its annual Christmas Pageant this week. We've been working very hard to perfect our song and dance routine, and I was ready to take the stage!

We had a chance for a photo op before the show. My friend, Michael and I - so camera-ready! ;)

When it was my class' turn, I acted as if I was born to perform!

No stage-fright here - Mommy was amazed, and so proud!

However, the next morning we met Santa for breakfast at the Embassy. I wasn't too sure about this up-close-and-personal encounter with The Big Guy. Isla had a case of the curiousities, but was otherwise unfazed...

I guess with a stocking full of goodies, I can be bribed into anything.

P.S. - Santa had to forgo his usual, black boots in favor of more Brazilian attire!
