Visiting Santa

The cutest elf!

We went to visit Santa on Saturday.  We like to go to non-crowded places that let you take your own picture.  I don't like being robbed for the opportunity to have an annual picture of my kids with Santa.  If over-priced places like the mall would cut their fee in half, I would gladly pay it.  I actually like their Christmas set up/background and their Santa looks very genuine.  But since they have chosen to exploit Santa and take our kids down with him, I don't visit them anymore, especially not to pay $20 for a single photo of my kids on Santa's lap.

Hunter looks happy, but he needed a little bribe..
As I was dragging him by his arm over to see Santa, the lady there told him she had a treat for him after he said hi to Santa.  He was more than willing after that.  He is SO easy to bribe!

Happy as can be!
Hunter asked Santa for Lightning McQueen and Jacob asked for a green light saber.  My kids are not very original.  Hunter has a million Lightning McQueen toys and Jacob has a number of light sabers, just not a green one.  We'll see if Santa comes through for them!!
