Christmas Time: Visiting Santa

We recently took Alex and  Victory to visit Santa, an annual tradition! All went well with both of our girls during their Santa visit, and Alex shared the few items, with Santa, that she would like him to bring her this Christmas!  

Victory, our beautiful fur girl, did very well, like always! This is Victory’s ninth time visiting Santa and Alex’s fifth time visiting Santa! You can see Victory’s previous trips to visit Santa: here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here. This is the only Santa in our area that welcomes both of our girls, while also allowing me to take photographs! Victory wore her candy cane sweater, and Alex wore a dark green dress.  All proceeds from visiting Santa are donated to a local dog rescue, a very good cause near and dear to our hearts, as Biscuit and Victory are rescues.  If you are interested, be sure to check with and visit your local pet stores to see if there is a Santa in your area that specializes in furry family members!

A few images from Victory’s and Alex’s fifth visit together with Santa are shown below, along with images of Victory with Santa from the previous seven visits, excluding 2020 and 2021, due to COVID-19. The time really does fly by too quickly!  We are so grateful for our fur girl, Victory!

Below are images from Victory’s ninth visits to see Santa: 2014 – 2024 (excluding 2020 and 2021 due to COVID-19, sadly).

The girls’ visits to see Santa in 2018, 2019, 2022, 2023, 2024. 

Pictured below is Alex in front of our Christmas tree in 2020; and Alex in front of my parents’ Christmas tree during 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024. We truly missed seeing Santa in 2020 and 2021 due to COVID-19.

And, after seeing Santa, Alex and Victory made hand print and paw print ornaments at the pottery shop, shown below! It was so much fun, and a wonderful, unique keepsake for our girls! You can see last year’s hand print and paw print ornaments here.

Below is a video from Alex’s recent Christmas program at school.
