We're off to see the man in the big red suit.

We decided to take the boys to see Santa Claus, we took some time off from his busy schedule up at the North Pole to come to our mall. That Santa's such a nice guy.

Ben was a lot like Will Farrell in Elf, shouting, and screaming, and jumping about. All the people around us were enamored with Ben's belief in the big guy. Ben was just beside himself with excitement.

Ben cracked me up, I asked him, "What is this thing?" and he said, "Oh, that just a toy soldier. There's SANTA!" Proving, Santa could have rolled up in a trash can, and Ben would have loved him unconditionally.

Hunter was mostly confused. I hope we're waiting in line for some food... he thought.

Theo's such a trooper.

Pictures to come soon. They don't let us amatuers photograph Santa, so I have to scan-in or photograph the photo. Be patient. Santa doesn't bring present to kids who are not patient.
