Why hello there, folks.  Annabelle Jane here.

So Daddy has been on my case to give you an update on my little duel with Santa Claus.  As you know, I pulled out all the stops to catch him and get my hands on his big red bag of presents.  But alas, despite all of my very best plans and schemes, he eluded me.

But do I feel defeated?  Deflated?  Dejected?  Depressed?  Or any other word that starts with “D”?!?!?  NO!!!!

Why, you ask?  Because even though I never actually saw Santa and his goodie-toting-reindeer, I’m pretty sure that I received almost all of the gifts he was carrying!

Yeah, what with all of the loot and lovin’ I’ve been lavished with over the past few weeks, I’m a pretty happy camper.  It’s been a good holiday.

And for all of you thrill seekers out there, don’t lose heart.  Being a very determined Little Lady, I am already starting to make plans to catch Santa in the act next Christmas.

And this time I think I’ll set some traps…
