Visit With Santa

Last week we took the boys to see Santa. They were so good while we waited in line for the better part of an hour! Finally it was their turn, and Evan's excitement turned to terror. As soon as the fat bearded guy asked Ev to sit on his knee, he was outta there! "Mummmmmyyyyy!!!!" It was rather funny (the sick twisted things we do to our kids). The photographer was amazing. He got Santa to move off the chair and over to the fire place, gave Evan a candy cane and got him as far away from Santa as possible. Poor Evan found it very difficult to give an authentic smile, so the final product was him doing his "cheeeeeeeese" face with his eyes stilll welled up with tears. I think the picture turned out pretty well considering! Next year I am going to have to start conditioning him in September...Santa flash cards, and random strangers in red suites and massive beards. ;)
