Miss Rea Rea is one lucky lady! Her preschool is the only one in the greater Richmond area that gets a visit each year from the "Legendary Santa." He's kind of a big deal around these parts.As a matter of fact, this special St. Nick used to be the one and only Miller & Rhoads Santa back in the good ol' days. (He's pushing about 85 and his yellowed wig and beard are proof) He's a member of the church where Reagan attends preschool and takes time out of his busy Christmas schedule to visit with the little kiddies. It was a BIG day!
Rea waited patiently for her turn atop his knee, told him she wanted 3 Barbies for Christmas, then dined on a PLATE (yes, plate...a bit much? I sure enjoyed the leftovers :) of cookies. A fun time was had by all.

When we were children in Richmond we would visit Miller and Rhodes every year to see this Santa and have lunch in the tea room. He always cut the reindeer cake (not made from reindeer, of course) and served it for dessert. He was accompanied by the very beautiful Snow Queen or Snow Princess -- can't remember which she was -- it's been a loooong time.
