Santa Baby

Tis the season to go see Santa Claus.  We decided that we would get dressed early and head to the mall on a Saturday in December for lunch and Christmas shopping.  We weren't the only people with this brilliant idea.  We, somewhat quickly, found a parking spot and headed in to the mall.  Our goal was which ever had the shortest line would be first.  Amazingly enough, Santa had 3 families in line in front of us.  Santa won.

We waited a while for the other families to get pictures and go over their lists, Gabe started getting restless.  He still isn't too sure what's the deal with Santa and why he should like him.  Once it was our turn I handed Bennett over to Santa and Gabriel clung for dear life to Scott.  We eventually got him to let me hold him and me sit next to Santa.  Of course, during the picture taking Gabriel was squirming around trying to get away and it was not a good picture.  The very kind Elves let Scott join in the fun and hold Gabe.

As you can see, Gabriel is still not a fan and really just wants to run away.  Bennett has no clue what is going on since it's his late morning nap time.  And the best news of all, we have a family picture that we will enjoy for years to come.

Thanks Santa!
