The Evolution of Eliza's Visits with Santa

2006, fits in the palm of Santa's hand:



2007, deer in the headlights:

2009, starting to think this isn't so bad, but certainly not talking to Santa:

2010, quite thrilled with the old guy and even chatted it up with Santa:




And an added bonus for 2010, the Richter Cousins (plus one Auntie) in their Ugly Sweaters:

    Miss Eliza rocked 2008. That is my absolute favorite one! The expression on Santa's face is just classic. Beautiful picture this year too!

    Eliza looks like a young lady in this year's photo--it ties with 2008 for my favorite!
